24 game playoff, no Conference Championships

College coaches endorse the proposal. Has the semi pro look. "For these reasons, both ESPN and the SEC have worked hard to limit the number of CFP games and keep the conference championship games. Not surprisingly, on the other side of the ledger, the rest of college football wants to expand past 16 games and discard the conference championships to break the SEC-ESPN monopoly on the sport."

how to render the regular season meaningless in 1 step....**
BobG • 05/07/26 07:49 AM ET
Agree, but as well, how to confront ESPN/SEC domination perhaps?**

Good the Hoos could get in after losing to Duke

24 is too many. I could see going to 16 but I'd rather see 8 teams.
Flanker • 05/06/26 04:39 PM ET
I would rather have 4. Money talks though. **

How do the venture capitalists stand on this issue?**
Truthahn • 05/06/26 12:05 PM ET
They didn't realize that non P4 coaches could vote on anything**
bigbadbird • 05/06/26 03:12 PM ET
They can vote all they like
Pylons • 05/07/26 09:48 AM ET

True or false**
TomTurkey • 05/06/26 04:04 PM ET
5 weeks
VTHokieTBone7 • 05/06/26 11:44 AM ET
Took 7 weeks for 12 teams.**
reestuart • 05/06/26 04:09 PM ET
Might have a longer break between the semifinals and the final
RJHokie • 05/06/26 11:56 AM ET
The coaches want no more than 6 days between games**

That's awesome- as long as school doesn't get in the way let's ruin
bigbadbird • 05/06/26 11:46 AM ET
well these young players are now paid.
VaTechie • 05/06/26 08:23 PM ET
Probably 5 or 6 weeks.
RJHokie • 05/06/26 11:40 AM ET
Would like to know which coaches voted for this.**
section11hokie • 05/06/26 10:17 AM ET
Probably ones without big ESPN dollars?**
V333T • 05/06/26 10:55 AM ET
We will be ranked 25th knowing our luck**
HokieBrazil • 05/06/26 08:52 AM ET
We will be a bubble team**
Tuckahokie • 05/06/26 06:37 AM ET
I doubt it. Franklin's not a tunnel or bubble guy with screen packages**
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 05/06/26 04:39 PM ET
Bubble gum? Oh, you said bubble. Yeah, I’d hope, at least, for that.
