Can we all admit the truth

the expanded CFP format is a bust, it's stupid, and the first round was a disaster.

Yep. Home teams all win with a total scoring disparity of 145-68. One or more of the next round games could be blowouts as well. As we all know, it's all about the $.

Atmosphere on the campuses were awesome. Games mostly sucked. I would not say it was a bust as it is intended to weed out teams on the road to a national championship and to make money. It achieved those purposes.

The game that actually surprised me was the Ohio State Tennessee game..

I suggest that all the rounds be played at neutral sites - like bowls.

NFL playoffs must be just as dumb then.

The best teams won so I don't see the problem.

Agree. Not going to get those big crowds and all that money on neutral sites. Tell it like it is these first round games are about making money.

Lot of blowouts in CFP since the beginning in 2014.

Nearly the entire country counted us out against Oklahoma in. 07. Imagine if there were playoffs back then…

 

[locustwv]

Counted us out against Georgia and Clemson also.

I think it has been great. The teams in are the ones that should have been in. Now, the seeding might need to be changed where there isn't an automatic bye for the top 4 conference champions.

Oklahomer was likely the best football team in the country at the end of 07 so many were shocked with WVU taking them behind the woodshed in the Fiesta Bowl. OU tried to comeback in the 2nd half but WVU had other plans, the flogging continued.
