Think of schools like Illinois, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt and Purdue. Guaranteed 4 picks gives them a much better chance at getting into the CFP than relying on an at large pick. Think about Indiana. They got in by a sliver, riding a weak schedule. Near coin flip between them and Bama. Guaranteed 4 picks puts into black and white whether they get in . Not left to whims of a committee.

Auto-bids make the SEC and B1G conference regular seasons less exciting. -- Maroon Baboon Feb 23, 2025 at 09:08 PM ET

They don't need auto-bids. The playoff is already stacked in their favor** -- EDGEMAN Feb 23, 2025 at 05:57 PM ET
