Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football
I have "heard" reports that this number has gotten pretty high, but then you can always "hear" most anything. -

College Football’s 12-Team Playoff Finally Arrived—and It Was a Complete Dud
Exactly this. And before winning it all, Michigan was 0-2 in the playoffs including a bad 20+ points loss to Georgia but I don't remember anybody saying they didn't deserve to make the playoffs. Only when it's the smaller guys do we use bad losses against them.- 2

College Football’s 12-Team Playoff Finally Arrived—and It Was a Complete Dud
The most ridiculous argument ever is the “TCU getting blown out means they didn’t deserve to be in the playoff” argument. They BEAT Michigan in the semi-finals. They won a playoff game, but they shouldn’t have been in the playoff? What kind of illogical thinking is that?- 1

College Football’s 12-Team Playoff Finally Arrived—and It Was a Complete Dud
Ever since the 4 team playoff started, there have been blowouts and nobody has ever cared nor has it ever counted against those schools. Now that we have smaller programs like SMU and Indiana getting blown out, we want to complain that there aren't 12 worthy teams. Anything to protect the big money programs. I will continue to support the 12 team playoff and would even like it go to 16 with more conference champion auto bids. Here's some blowouts we had during the 4 team playoffs: 2014: Oregon 59 - 20 Florida state Ohio State 42 - 20 Oregon 2015: Clemson 37 - 17 Oklahoma Alabama 38 - 0 Michigan Statd 2016: Alabama 24 - 7 Washington Clemson 31 - 0 Ohio State 2017: Alabama 24 - 6 Clemson 2018: Clemson 30 - 3 Notre Dame Clemson 44 - 16 Alabama 2019: LSU 63 - 28 Oklahoma Since 2020, we've had Alabama, Notre Dame, Michigan, Washington, Clemson, Cincinnati, and TCU (duh!) lose by 15+. Nobody cared about any of those losses going back to 2014 except for Cincinnati and TCU because they were smaller programs. Those two games, and the ones from the past weekend, are the only ones ever used to argue against expanded playoffs. Just a bunch of gate-keeping going on. Blowouts will always be a thing. That doesn't mean you stop playing the games.- 4
