How Many More Titles Can Bama Win Before The NCAA Makes Rule Changes?

[TUSK]

Ok, I realize that many here will say that the rules won't change, but there has to be a line right?

Bama has won 5 of the last 9 National Titles & was in another championship game.

Bama has only played in 3 games over the past decade in which they were out of contention for the national championship.

We saw scholarship reductions to 95 in 1978 to 85 in 1992. Bear Bryant won titles in 73, 78, & 79.

Question is: how many more years can the Bama dynasty last before rule changes are made?

Are we close or are we still aways away?

Is the next move a scholarship limit reduction or a dramatic change in how schools acquire players?

Well, they've already changed the post season from the 2 team BCS format to a 4 team playoff. It's my opinion that was done to prevent an All-SEC final. When "they" went to 4 teams bc of all the crying, I was steadily smiling. All that was going to do was INCREASE the odds of an All-SEC final. And if/when "they" go to 8 teams (bc of all the crying), I will smile even bigger and then retroactively claim the 2010 NC.

The dynasty will die, they all do... will it be 3 years? 5? I dunno, but it will croak.

Scholarship Reductions? That would help, but it probably wouldn't mitigate much of the disparity between the current Ohio States, Alabamas, Clemsons, etc and the others. Those schools would probably see their actual "average recruit ranking" increase, but depth would be negatively impacted. I don't think Bammer would have stood a snowball's chance in hell of going 13-1 this past season with all the injuries if the scholarship numbers were drastically lower. Conversely, non "blue blood" programs would have almost zero margin of error, as well. Adding MORE playoff teams would help bigtime programs, IMO.

Ncaa HS player draft? No.

Now, what would be effective?

1) Have ONLY conference champs eligible for the playoffs. And, as soon as that happens, an MSU, USCe, or Iowa (historical type team) will go 11-1 in the regular season with a decent SOS and victory margin only to lose on a blocked punt for a TD as time expires to their eventual conference champ. Then, the aforementioned team (prolly ranked in the Top 5), would get supplanted in the playoffs by a #18 UCF (12-0) with an SOS of 854...

2) Put a quota on the number of times one can go to the playoffs. Yeah, unless I see the modern day equivalent of a Soviet T-72 Tank rolling down my driveway, that ain't happenin'...

3) Create a separate "league". Perhaps with an NFL affiliation (I dunno). Just spitballin', here:

SEC - Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Tennessee?
PAC - USC, Oregon
B1G - OSU, Michigan, PSU, Wisky?
B12 - Oklahoma, Texas, TCU?
ACC - Miami, Clemson, FSU, VT?
Ind - ND

4) Or, we can just wait.

Sorry for the atypically long winded post... I ain't goin' outside today, so yall are stuck with me allllllll day...
