Earlier today, the College Football Playoff Board of Managers met earlier today to unanimously approve to change the current four-team playoff system to a “5+7” model, which would feature five of the highest ranked conference champions and seven at-large bids based on their ranking by the College Football Playoff Committee, a total of 12 teams competing for the college football national championship.
One could argue that today’s vote was the final death knell in the collapsing world of college football of old. Gone are the days of debating who the REAL champion should be. Gone are the days of players or coaches caring about winning a non-playoff bowl. Gone are the days where players stayed committed to one school and risked everything for a chance at, maybe finally, getting paid in the league.
And that’s a good thing.
