13 Team SEC ?

until we add two more teams of course....then go to 4 divisions with a 2 week conference playoff/championship. play conference tourney in nashville, but probably not nashville because of weather.

14 teams, no divisions, with the top 4 teams in a 2 week SEC playoff....this better

Not at all.

I'm pretty well set against a playoff because I feel like it will devalue the regular season, which is one of the things that makes college football so great. In no other sport can you play a must-win game at any point on your schedule, whether it's the first week or the last.

You get into a scenario where a team can catch fire at the end of the year (see Green Bay Packers 2010) and you essentially crown a flavor-of-the-month champion as opposed to rewarding the team that was best from beginning to end.

what happens when you have 3/4 teams with the same record and they haven't had head-2-head matchups?

With the divisional system this never comes up because all the teams that would potentially be tied would have also met on the field. Like I said, I just really like the system we have in place now because it rewards teams for being good in weeks 1-15 as opposed to a playoff that basically rewards teams for being good from week 15 on.

You have to be good to get to play in week 15 and on.

But you would need an even number of teams
