This post was inevitable sooner or later " I " someone was going to post it and we haven't really had a true discussion about it and we all most likely feel the same way about it.
This is a very good article and if you haven't read it you should. Playoff is a problem for the little guys
Now a lot of the information in that article we are all well too familiar with, If you have been a long time Cowboys fan this is something that dates back to the WAC and why the MWC was formed. The unfortunate of it all, The MWC was a great creation but only one previous WAC member actually benefitted from it being Utah. Everyone else in the MWC today is just in the WAC all over.
I think we all remember this April 21, 2009 Thompson pitches playoff plan. Most people tell me when I talk about College Football that I'm pessimistic and a conspiracy theorist and when I talk about the BCS or the new Playoff Committee it's true I am. I absolutely and 100% believe that they declined the 8 playoff system to control G5 schools having very very limited opportunity and that is what 4 spots gives them a monopoly on where the NC Title goes, They don't care what P5 has it just that is a P5.
For discussion sake can any G5 Team without having five P5 opponents on the schedule that they beat ever see #4 on the Committee based polls?
Some articles and websites that might give you more insight if you haven't researched it already.
