@OutOfKenTroll @0and0Sports @JoshPateCFB @BryanDFischer @ByPatForde I was also told there were only 4-6 teams that could win the title in a given year. The last two years, at least one outside the top 6 seeds has advanced to the title game. Even if it were literally impossible, a lower seed can trip up a higher seed, making it *gasp* fun…

Yes Iowa SMU Kansas State etc will get that opportunity but it will ultimately be as “worthless” as playing in a bowl. Can those teams pull off an upset? Yes. Can they pull off 2, 3, 4 or 5? Absolutely not. All expansion does is sell those teams on the fantasy that they could in theory.

@JimE3434 @JoshPateCFB @BryanDFischer @ByPatForde I’m sorry. I was told upsets never happened. Then I was told the teams pulling the upsets were loaded with NFL talent. Now I’m told upsets require sports espionage. Don’t tire yourself out moving that target man. Have a good Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

@JPWARHORSE I also like how the weapons get less and less lethal. Start with a chair… ok…. Then a metal bucket… umm…. Sure…. Then a PLASTIC bucket…. Uhh…. Then, a baking sheet…. Something that cookies are baked on…. Ok, we’re done here…

@AlwaysCFB @GregMcElroy I’ll just go on and say it…. The narrative that the regular season is the greatest in sports is a lie. If it were true, 25% of the schedule wouldn’t be complete trash. There wouldn’t be built in extra byes with cupcakes. The totality isn’t great and never has been.

@Soonernator @AlwaysCFB @GregMcElroy Oh there would be plenty of 2-3 loss teams. I was saying there would be maybe one to three 4 loss teams. There may be more than that later on with leagues adding more conference games, but that’s fine.

@PeterBurnsESPN It makes sense. Coaches and AD’s want a safety net on the field. Sankey is less concerned about that and more concerned about protecting TV money. More accurately, gate keeping TV money. And spare the “sanctity” BS. Come on man. That’s way more absurd than what Klatt is saying

Nope Could the SEC eventually be on board with a 24 team playoff? Perhaps. But the idea that 100% of their AD’s are pushing for expansion right now is flat out wrong Unlike the Big 10, the SEC values the sanctity of the regular season and it’s place in expansion decisions

"I had multiple coaches tell me that 90% of the coaches in the SEC and 100% of the athletic directors in the SEC favor a 24-team model for playoff expansion." Don't miss @joelklatt's takeaways from Big Ten Spring Meetings and more in his upcoming episode, premiering Monday.

@iAmCLPN @worxerrtime @PinehavenGuy Right. And I’m saying all the e talk about a team not earning a spot is rich coming from fanbases that saw their teams get multiple shots their team didn’t earn, starting with the BCS era. So you don’t get to now say that a 24 team berth would be unearned.

@iAmCLPN @worxerrtime @PinehavenGuy It’s ok. I think with such limited CFP spots (2-4), not winning the division should be a nonstarter. You don’t and that’s ok. You prefer invitationals. But wanting teams to earn their way in and celebrating a championship where one team didn’t do that is a contradiction

@macandcube there’s already been a 3 loss team… why do people keep saying “I don’t want 3 loss teams in?” They’re also acting like the SEC isn’t adding a conference game, so naturally, you’re going to have more losses when one of the cupcake games goes away

@macandcube CFB is one of the only sports that’s truly bulletproof. Expansion isn’t for “us.” All of this makes sense if you’re trying to keep more of the audience engaged for longer and/or get new eyeballs. NW in the 24 team might not do anything for us, but it does for NW fans
