I’m for no bids at all. The ”best” 12 teams can be found by:

Use the BCS system. The AP and Coaches polls would consist of equal regional representation. In other words, break up the country into 5 or 6 regions, and each region has 8-10 voters for both polls. Then, the Harris poll can be used to crunch numbers and compare SOS, SOR, etc. Average the three polls and line them up in ascending order.

Also, I could get behind eliminating any team from consideration that’s not in a conference. If you happen to be Notre Dame, you‘re removed from the final rankings and every team behind you slides up. This is much simpler and eliminates as much subjectivity as is feasibly possible. If anyone has something that is less subjective, I’d love to hear it.

Reminds me of my old nickname. . . "Stovepipe"

Mine was 'Pex'.

Not bc of my 50" chest. but, preferred plastic red and blue piping for homes to copper piping. Really does make a difference. Our home was built before plumbing code required it. We have pin holes every year. So lats year we ripped most of old crap out.

Also i lied.

The dramatic music... Playoffs are giving ESPN their narrative.

Tennessee is great to talk about, easy to doubt. They know the fanbase is rabid.

Man, a ND/TN homegame at Neyland would be insane. Imagine that in prime time.

If UT wins out the regular season, a first round bye (pending sec title win) or a first round home game is virtually guaranteed.

The sweet spot would be not playing in Atlanta and still drawing a 5 or 6 seed in the CFP.

The sweet spot is winning the SEC, having a bye, and being the 1 or 2 seed.

It’s all relative to what you desire. The 5 seed likely draws the group of 5 representative and then draws the worst of the P4 conference champs in the quarterfinals. Easy path to the Semis.

I say it’s a sweet spot IF you can avoid Atlanta. I’d rather the extra game be a home game in Neyland against a group of 5 team than an extra game be in Atlanta.

I honestly hate the idea.
I hate the 12 team playoff
i hated the 4 team playoff
I hated the BCS

I loved the old way .....


I also hate the NIL............It sucks!


I said it. I'll adapt. I'll still watch and cheer as hard as I can. I don't have to like it.
