[QUOTE="Calvin, post: 2035654, member: 4069"] It seems many of you have little faith in capitalism, which I will remind you, got fans a playoff in the first place, a huge improvement in getting better post-season games and a true national champion. (Ok, even a 4 team playoff in the current format that can bump G5 schools is not a true champion, but it's pretty close). There's a lot of greed and borderline, if not outright corruption that goes along with it, so I get the complaints, but in many respects I think you can easily build a case that the sport is more responsive to fans than it's ever been. The newer format should promote better non-conf games, allow the G5 to have representation in the playoff, and NIL was long overdue. And it is starting to reach players who would otherwise sacrifice their bodies with a lot less to show for it. [/QUOTE]
