This year was one of those years when there were 2 teams head and shoulders above the rest (and Bama is head and shoulders above Clemson). I believe that most of the time games would be competitive between the top 8 ranked teams in a playoff system
Eh..........I respectively strongly disagree.
I was kidding somewhat about going back to two, but 8 is simply a waste of time.......but the money involved??.........they may do it sooner than later.
Basically, you have a hand full of college teams........maybe 8.......that are simply head and shoulders above the rest of the country. But typically half of them have injuries, a down year, and couple bad breaks.
So each year, it's the same thing.......2, 3, or 4 teams being clearly dominant.
There could well be a year or two when all the powerhouse schools are down s bit, and a second tier school makes a run.
But that's the exception, and will not happen often.
