For years we’ve heard the reasons why a college football playoff is impossible. A playoff takes away from the integrity of the regular season. It adds to the regular season and takes away from a student’s ability to study for exams. It would kill the bowl system. Whatever. These are all nothing but B(C)S reasons to make some old rich men even richer. Integrity of the regular season? I’m sorry, how many non-debatable champions have we had in college football? Unless the only two undefeated teams meet, there’s not a chance. Even when they do, someone will pull out the strength of schedule argument and say an unbeaten, such as Utah in 2008, played a weak schedule so they shouldn’t get a shot. And how strong ids the integrity of the regular season when several of the top ranked teams play 3 or 4 OOC games against cupcakes from the Championship sub-division? I don’t care how strong you conference is perceived to be. If you play a FCS team or the 3 newest schools to the FBS, you can say NOTHING about strength of schedule!
