Until there are 8 teams, this is the best way. Once there are 8, there should be 5 autobids and 3 byes.

I agree that this is the best playoff format.

i think 8 is still not enough... you have to go to at least 16 if not 24 like the fcs. think about the years with a top acc or b1g seed ranked in the teens? going to 8 doesn't help you in those scenarios.

and i don't even like sports

Deshaun Watson started today for the first time since breaking his finger. It looks like he messed up his knee and left the game in the 1st quarter against GTech. Cole Stoudt comes in and throws an 85 yard pick six (GTech missed their extra point). Clemson down at half 9-3.

[BCdee]

Ouch. Another interception thrown by Stoudt. Clemson is going to get blown out.

[BCdee]

Another pick six.

Dammit. The sole reason I chose Clemson in claver's pick-em is because Watson was back.

So did I. Watson didn't even last a quarter. Clemson was moving the ball when he was in. It sounds like he tore his ACL. Clemson is sucking without him today.

BEAMER BALL

[DavidGordonsFoot]

If it hasn't happened already, Beamer officially lost his marbles on that last series. Going no huddle up 1 w/ 4 minutes to play and a fake punt on 4th and 18.

the best part of this game is it's the clown crew we had last week

This is what I want as well. Adds great value to each of the big 5 conference championship games. They become playoff games themselves, and it can be credibly stated, therefore, that this system really includes 13 teams in the playoffs. Also, most years, the SEC would get 2 teams in, since they will usually garner one of the 3 at large bids. This also provides protection for the super team that goes 12-0, in impressive fashion, with a tough OOC schedule, but loses its conference championship game.

A question I have would be whether or not you give one of the 3 at large bids to the best of the non-power conference teams, by making a rule that at least one of such teams shall come from outside of the Big 10/12/pac 10/sec/acc.

EDIT: one of you will notice that in cases where a team loses the conference championship game, but gets an at large bid, there will be less than 13 teams in my enlarged definition of playoff participation.

Kansas did have a ridiculous TD play when they had the lead.

[DomingoOrtiz]

Miss St QB sucked tonight, but I still think they are the best team.

ND - NW about to start OT

regulation took over 4 hours

Who know someone's face could turn such lovely shades of purple.

[HJS]

The middle of the field is WIDE OPEN against the Noles. A true frosh has been abusing it thus far for the Canes. Of course, this is merely anecdotal when considering next week as The U's 18-year-old QB can throw and Golden has WRs who can catch. BTW... FSU's offense is pretty terrible and requires Rapeis to flip-the-switch a be great for a quarter to win.

[h2o]

I want the Canes to win this game but Golden wearing the shirt and tie in honor of Paterno is annoying as all hell.

The ACC is going after the conference record for missed extra points this year.

FSU sucks.

FSU sucks.

They def look slow on defense.

Seriously, their defense is horrid.

Seriously, their defense is horrid.

Their D is spotty. Real strong on the outside. Miami isn't going anywhere near the CBs. The sweeps et al aren't working (and why Duke Johnson hasn't done anything in the first half. But they are ridiculously weak up the middle. In particular, the LBs can't cover shit and the safeties are more tacklers than coverage players.

Again, this all means shit for our game as we can't pass and like to work the edge. Comically, however, Hilliman up the middle should actually work.

I think I just saw Chris Huang in the crowd. It was either him or Kim Jong Un.

[BCdee]

Winston definitely looks hobbled.

Hope you're all ready for a Noon game next week.

FSU is getting exposed by a crappy Miami team
