The playoff..............

There is precedent for a non-conference champ playing for a natty...

Bama vs lsu in '11

1. Bama
2. OSU
3. Clemson
4. Washington

Conference championships mean a lot, but they don't mean everything.

It will take a few years but the current contracts won't make the 10-year term. They will be amended or replaced.

This year may also stir some talk about eliminating divisions. Just take the top two teams by tiebreakers.

I agree with you on everything except the 1 non-P5. That's a wasted game imo. Can you imagine BAMA vs WMU in a playoff game? I think we need to separate divisions or just make it 3 at large bids to the three most deserving teams.

This is what it will be and what it should be. Gonna be entertaining games. I don't think Washington can beat Alabama, but I expect Washington to have a bag of tricks for saban

You do that to throw them a bone and give them hope. One of the things that makes college football great is it's reach across the country.

There's no way their oline can play with us. No way.

Bama rolls them all.

They've given up 2 more sacks than you guys this year.

Again, I'm not predicting Washington even comes close to winning, but they're gonna be the best offense you've guys seen in a while. Peterson knows he can line up and beat you guys so expect a game plan like he used vs Oklahoma in the fiesta the year he beat stoops

We will see. They havent played a team with an NFL front 7. They look outmatched up front on both sides of the ball.
