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...
    None of your answers help MSU in any way. Sorry try again

    I?ll stick with my idea about players getting a 1 time immediately eligible transfer if they don?t play 35% or greater snaps after their 2nd or 3rd year on campus

    My issue with Bama has never been the starters. It’s the 4 & 5 star guys on the bench that don’t play that could be starting or in the 2 deep for 2nd tier schools that bother me.

    Allow a redistribution of the talent and I think you see a more even playing field even though Bama would technically still be the best team.
