[QUOTE="Calvin, post: 1828028, member: 4069"] Not that anyone asked, but I like the new format for several reasons: The 4 team format kept out too many deserving teams. 4 isn't even enough to put in conference champions, let alone the best of the non-conf champions. Really helps the non P5. Similar to the bball tournament, you'll have a rich debate about resumes and seeding, so hardcore fans will have plenty to follow. The cut-off for a first round bye will be very hotly debated, for sure. There's already a debate about "punishing" teams that lose their conference championship, but I think all games need to be considered. Season is pretty long -- I hope more guys get something for the effort and risks they take. If I'm a first rounder, do I even play in the playoffs? I wonder if they'll need to come up with an insurance plan for playoffs. [/QUOTE]
