So they fixed a flaw. Should be better now. You won't have the 12th seed as number 4 now.

![]() It is the correct change. Boise State and Arizona State were good teams but not top five quality.

And I'm sure given that info, they're all in favor of it... win your conference, guaranteed money. Get a top 4 seed, guaranteed money. It'll make the rich richer, but nothing new there. It changes nothing from who made it in 2024 though. The only downside to the system now, besides maybe overexpanding it a bit, is the selection committee itself... but with so many teams getting in now, there's just less and less room for whining if you lost 3 games in a season or had a super soft schedule.

Heh. This is all nonsense.
There are so many lawsuits coming down the pike you won't recognize college sports in 24 months. Players suing their university, universities suing their conference, conferences suing the college collective, conferences suing each other... It's just a cluster**** of greedy assholes. |

As someone that's been around a while, I ain't sure I recognize it now....sure don't care much for it. I know the days of the Big 8 are never coming back but I will admit that I cared more about college sports then than now.

I think it's all gotten boring as **** and with the transfer portal being so easy, you just build a roster in one year and there's no development of players/programs.

Every single game was important. One loss could end your season/chance at a national title. That's what made it exciting week-to-week. That's gone. Recruiting and building programs. That's gone. Now it just feels like an NFL format with far inferior football. |

Now my football team might be able to bring in actual D1 quality players finally and I just expect them to all leave if they flash anything. Why not? I'd go somewhere else to play football and get pussy for an extra 100k/yr or whatever promises they give me at ****nut State |

The coaches and the donors are the real story now. Good work getting untold billions when Phil Knight dies Oregon; hopefully you got a hell of a salesman at coach so you can capitalize on it.
