games this year were sold out, I'm guessing got good ratings, and there is just too much money in the present media contact cycle to get rid of them. When the new media contracts are negotiated, instead of a championship game, they should have play in games (extended playoffs) for the G5 and power schools that are not ranked in the top 8. Give the top 8 a buy, and expand the playoffs to 24. Eliminates the controversy of schools being left out, because they can make the field by actually winning on the field. As an example, let BYU play Alabama as a play in game. Or hell, maybe even a Texas and a Utah. The ACC had an off year this year, but they will be back.
