Good thoughts. Here's my response.

1. I would be good with this. And yes, I think anything that puts more juice in the title games is good. So yeah, I'd like this. 2. I am not sure it would be good to get rid of G6 championship games. I'd like to do away with ALL conference championship games, but I digress. That being said, I want to incorporate the G6 as much as possible. To your question, I would have play-in games be ON campus. Also, under this 6-4-12 plan, G6 teams not in their championship games could be eligible for the field of 12 in the pay-in games. BTW, I would cap the number of teams in the playoff from one conference at six, and also not have two teams from the same conference play. If this plan was used, here is what the play-in games would have looked like last season (using the CFP Poll): Syracuse at Notre Dame Illinois at Tennessee Missouri at Ohio State South Carolina at Indiana BYU at Alabama Ole Miss vs. Miami Assuming all the home teams won in the 12-team play-in, this is what the field might look like: I'd make adjustments to avoid two straight home games by non-champions, and rewarding conference champs with a home game. Also gives SEC and B1G runners up (who played in a neutral sites conference title game) a deserving home game. As a side note, I would flip SMU and Alabama to avoid the SEC match-up of Alabama-Texas in the first round. So it would be Alabama at Penn State and SMU at Texas instead. It would also avoid having all four SEC teams in the bottom half of the bracket. So, it would look like this. (15) Iowa State at (1) Oregon (8) Indiana at (9) Boise State (5) Notre Dame at (16) Army (11) Alabama at (4) Penn State (10) SMU at (3) Texas (6) Ohio State at 14) Clemson (7) Tennessee at (12) Arizona State (13) Miami at (2) Georgia ** Edited by Maroon Baboon at 7/1/2025, 3:33:17 PM

Lots of gaslighting for sure. I do agree the committee is bad. **

The lack of creative thinking and big picture prospect is scary bad.**
