CBS Sportsline College Football Playoffs
Hello all, longtime lurker, but I don't post very much as I'm stuck here in San Antonio.
Anyway, I searched for this but didn't see it, but if it's already here please move it. CBS Sportline's website has put together a 16 team D1 playoff, with voters choosing who wins (close ones are played on EA Sports CFB 2K6). The Bucks are in the final four, against USC (currently leading with 54% against 41%).
Here is the link: http://www.cbs.sportsline.com/spin/story/9118590
On a side note, I'm a volunteer in one of the food and beer berths at the Alamo Bowl tonight, so I'll be subtly reminding scUM fans about "25-21" and so forth (unfortunately, it's Aramark, so I have to wear khakis and a white collared shirt).
I figure writing the score on both my hands so their fans can see it when I hand them yet ANOTHER beer (to drown their sorrows) is a good start.
GO BUCKS!!

That is retarded. If they had a 16 team playoff they better just use the BCS poll and not care who won the conferences. Akron doesn't belong in a playoff between the best teams. IMO there are 3 levels of teams in D1A. Mid majors who have no reason to be talked about for the NC i.e. MAC, Con. USA, WAC, Mountain West, etc. Then you have the crappy schools from the BCS conferences. They don't have a chance to win the NC, but they are members of one of the big conferences i.e. the Indiana's of the world. These teams can beat most of the mid majors, but can't compete with the best programs. The top of the food chain are the super powers who I would guess have won every NC since WWII. These are the only schools that should be talked about in terms of a CFB playoff save for a rare occurrence like Utah last season.
A 16 team playoff is way too much for D1A anyway. 8 teams would be the best, while still making sure that the regular season means something.

tOSU is leading USC 53% - 41% in the poll for the semifinal game.
I think putting the score on your hands is a great idea, 27! Maybe you could wear a hat with "4 out of 5' on it. Or "Tressel owns LLLLoyd"
Have a great time at the game.

USC and Texas should be happy that the number of fans a school has doesn't decide who wins the NC.

What does San Antonio have to do with posting on this board? Do they have evil robots with whips who punish people who post on message boards? Or just this message board?
