[QUOTE="the juiceman cometh, post: 1838482, member: 747321"] I'll take it a step futher for you. The forces/rationale behind playoff expansion are the same forces that were [I]against[/I] player compensation, NIL, player unionization etc. By and large playoff expansion doesn't exactly jive with principles of player welfare or fair compensation. It's more games (and thus work) for players, to generate more revenue the players don't get a share of. If there was a college football players' union, it would surely oppose this expansion, the same way the NFL players union initially opposed the expansion of the season to 17 games (the NFL had to throw in an increase of players' revenue share to get the expansion passed, and it was a close vote).
