The NCAA tournament is a form of revenue sharing, and giving every
conference a slice of the pie - no matter how large, or how small the conference is. Does anyone think that one of those 16 seeds in a one invite conference will ever win a title, or compete with the Duke's and Kentucky's of the world? Of course not - so I ask
Why is the football different? Why does the lions share of the playoff money go to the P2? The rational was that they win, or have been in the playoffs almost exclusively, so they should get the money. It's a decent argument, but they guarantee that an Indiana, or a Vanderbilt (include the B12 and ACC) get a significant portion of that money, whether they participate, or not. This all, before they even play a game. The auto's should have been enough of "guaranteed" money, and the football playoffs should be paid in units to those that win on the field, not those that use history as a guide.
They should also expand it to 16 teams, and give 3 auto's to the G5, Eliminate the guaranteed money, and let the chips fall where they may.
What could Georgia or Ohio State possibly be afraid of? Don't you think the lions share of the invites would go to Big10 or SEC schools? The P2 needs to get over themselves, and soon.
