B1G wants the Bowls Games for playoff.

[Mark Gommesen]

With major college football headed toward a playoff, Big Ten administrators this week came out in favor of staging those games in bowls, a step that would keep the conference's longstanding ties to the Rose Bowl.

The championship game at a non BCS location any ideas? What major city has two excellent facilities but not a BCS bowl..a City with schools in four different division 1 conferences....any ideas?

Brent Musbeger has said on a recent ESPN telecast he thought it would go to a 16 team play-off eventually which still allows for a Cinderella type team IMO.

The 4 game play-off really doesn't change much from what the NCAA already has, but I guess its a good start to eventually get more teams involved.

Wonder why they don't see March Madness as a model for college football? .

GMG!

Jeez, I've only been floating this idea for the past six years. How much did they pay the consultant to come up with this one?

That's why we need to support this even though it leaves us out in the short term. Once a playoff is in place, they will have no choice other than expansion.
