I liked how Lanning came out and said they should be playing their

game at Texas Tech. I agree with him. I think they could also have the season align as such that the semis could be played January 1. To do so, they'd have to get rid of conference championships, and I don't see the conferences letting go of those. I just know that there's no reason the Cotton Bowl should be such an easy ticket. ** Edited by reestuart at 12/29/2025, 8:47:38 AM

This is like the old +1 model that many favored before they created the BCS

That would be my ultimate goal. Start the season earlier, get rid of

I think you will find schools will be reluctant to start the regular season

Their already doing Week 0 games, if this was going to happen, why hasn't
Stech 12/29/25 12:02 PM ET
Teams need a waiver to play Week 0 games regardless of which division level
VTHokie2000 12/29/25 12:08 PM ET
Agree need rules change, hypocritical to say it's okay for some & not all.

I think the whole season and offseason needs to shift. No spring football
reestuart 12/29/25 10:51 AM ET
Maybe so, but I doubt schools are willing to take on the liability issue

Need to add play-in games among teams being considered for CFP, but not in
Maroon Baboon 12/28/25 11:03 PM ET
I’m glad to see that others are sharing a similar vision
HokieAl 12/29/25 09:27 AM ET
They can still do play-in games even if they don't junk the CCGs.
Maroon Baboon 12/29/25 09:34 AM ET
I would love to give conferences control and flexibility for championships
