Exactly, not only the P2, but everyone including ND would play more tough

games. Not only that, but you can win the ratings in the short run without integrity and consistency, but in the long run it will eat you up. Look at NASCAR for what can happen.

If you could set th rankings criteria for the playoff, what would be in it?
Stech • 12/26/24 11:24 AM ET
The argument, I suppose, is whether you are crowning the best or a champion
Hokester • 12/30/24 09:54 AM ET
That would be the ideal way, but obviously the SEC and Big10 would...
cincyhokie • 01/01/25 01:16 PM ET
I wouldn't set strict criteria
Pylons • 12/29/24 07:13 AM ET
Remember, the 2 team BCS used a compilation of computer rankings
PadrosWindup • 12/28/24 10:01 AM ET
Some objective mathematical criteria is better than none, we can & should
Stech • 12/28/24 10:19 AM ET
I would do it like European soccer.
Gobbler-100 • 12/27/24 09:55 PM ET
No rankings until November 1
mrcaniac • 12/27/24 07:25 PM ET
Unfortunately you can’t stop the media from having polls. And then pundits
IB4TECH • 12/27/24 08:55 PM ET
Can stop using their polls in the CFP rankings though**
mrcaniac • 12/28/24 06:28 PM ET
How?
Pylons • 12/29/24 04:04 PM ET
Something not talked about enough: the college football punditry class love
Maroon Baboon • 12/27/24 10:26 PM ET
So true!!!**
Stech • 12/27/24 08:00 PM ET
Most objective way to make changes is to do relegation and promotion.
Maroon Baboon • 12/27/24 07:01 PM ET
Something like this. A minimum of 9 wins, and win your bowl game.
Truthahn • 12/27/24 01:25 PM ET
If you are going to introduce "math", just use computer rankings...
jesuisvtguy • 12/27/24 12:55 AM ET
Like your more equitable math suggestion on who u beat, opinion domination
Stech • 12/27/24 04:19 PM ET
Bingo on the "Top 25" number. Anyone looking to remove "bias" should start
Maroon Baboon • 12/27/24 10:46 AM ET
Only computer rankings that have zero input from polls.
EDGEMAN • 12/27/24 10:17 AM ET
Exactly, not only the P2, but everyone including ND would play more tough ◄
Stech • 12/27/24 04:23 PM ET
Correct. No "experts" allowed, only cold hard data bits.**
Hokester • 12/27/24 12:32 PM ET
i don't think it matters
MrBayAreaHokie • 12/26/24 06:02 PM ET
It matters to encourage parity.
Truthahn • 12/27/24 01:27 PM ET
Beat UVA, you’re in playoff.
lawhokie • 12/26/24 11:50 AM ET
That would only fly, if UVA went to P2.**
manassashoo • 12/27/24 09:54 AM ET
Conference winners only. Let the conferences split up, and only
Big12 guy • 12/26/24 11:38 AM ET
What's nice about this is that all participants are decided on the field.**
Hokester • 12/27/24 12:35 PM ET
If interested n fairness or integrity, they would, but their goal is 💵💵💵
Stech • 12/26/24 02:44 PM ET
The total purse will be the same regardless of who is in it
daveinop • 12/27/24 08:07 AM ET
I would do more NFL style with even smaller groupings
HokieAl • 12/26/24 02:29 PM ET
This makes the most sense **
