"Why would you create a separate playoff for something that doesnt actually exist FCS is FCS. G5 is FBS. P4 is FBS. Those labels we use for discussion purposes are not recognized by the NCAA nor are they treated that way for postseason eligibility. Its not a separate division so until then its dumb to create a separate playoff that quite literally wouldnt be considered a national championship"

"Hes not wrong about the anti-trust aspect there are XX FBS conferences. It would absolutely be anti-trust to guarantee access for only four conferences until the NCAA recognizes G5 as its own division like it does FCS. The only way you avoid a lawsuit is going all at-large bids and the P4 didnt want to do that when they designed the playoffs because they didnt want to discourage championship game participation"

"Ask yourself a serious question P4 folks. You think road games in the SEC are a gauntlet right Do you really think Alabamas record would be the same with X road games compared to X Bama has a 80%+ win rate at home. Forcing them to play on the road would obviously decreasing their chances of winning. Thats what youre seeing with G5 teams now. Teams that win 70-80% at home being forced to play on the road in week X or X when rosters are uncertain then theyre being hated on for losing the one single opportunity they had. See how stupid that sounds 9-game conference schedule decreases P4-G5"

"Why would you create a separate playoff for something that doesnt actually exist FCS is FCS. G5 is FBS. P4 is FBS. Those labels we use for discussion purposes are not recognized by the NCAA nor are they treated that way for postseason eligibility.

It would absolutely be anti-trust to guarantee access for only four conferences until the NCAA recognizes G5 as its own division like it does FCS.

"Ask yourself a serious question P4 folks. You think road games in the SEC are a gauntlet right Do you really think Alabamas record would be the same with X road games compared to X Bama has a 80%+ win rate at home. Forcing them to play on the road would obviously decreasing their chances of winning. Thats what youre seeing with G5 teams now. Teams that win 70-80% at home being forced to play on the road in week X or X when rosters are uncertain then theyre being hated on for losing the one single opportunity they had.

"There is one FBS but the SEC & B1G have majority of the power. The ACC and Big XX are in the same boat as the G5 they just havent realized it yet. They each have X team in a 12-team playoff and the ACC almost had zero"

"We have people quoting player safety as a reason why G6 teams dont belong in the CFP and then theres 44-yr old Philip Rivers who just signed with the Indianapolis Colts"

"Only two G5 teams have been blown out in the NY6 or CFP in XX games. Cincy lost to #1 Bama by XX. Oregon notoriously crapped on Liberty which is literally the only argument any single person can give against the G5 using postseason results"

"Exactly. Penn State-Boise drew almost XX million last year. The viewership in the back half of the season for Boise State definitely fills that gap (of course that was mostly on Fox so it doesnt always benefit ESPN) If ESPN talk shows would cover Boise State I bet Boise fans would turn on the TV and watch more often though"

"Notre Dame and BYU fans: The two G5 conference champions are not your enemy. One conference receiving FIVE bids in a 12-team format is your biggest problem and it wont get better with expansion"

"Boise State vs Penn State drew TV viewership of XXXX million on New Years Eve last year. Penn State-SMU had XXX million. Texas-Clemson had XXX million. The National Championship between Ohio State and Notre Dame had XXXX million 3rd worst in the CFP era"

"The G5 won X of XX NY6 bowls outright. Only X of those X teams were ranked in the Top XX. Only X in the Top XX. Every P4 beaten was Top XX. Taking the top XX teams doesnt solve any problems when G5 teams are historically ranked poorly. Gfx: @CFBKings"

"@DanzW0rld If you take away Alabamas wins this season they actually didnt win a single game"

"People forget that Cincinnati had to go undefeated for two straight regular seasons to make the CFP. UCF went undefeated for one and only hit #12. Thats a bad precedent"
