Rose Bowl has more clout than Notre Dame.

The RB needs to get over itself......again.  
Why do people (or entities) take pride in being a speed bump to progress?

Simply have a 12 team playoff, the winner of which gets to play Notre Dame in the Rose Bowl. 

Badda bing, badda boom. Problem solved.

I think it’s awesome.  If this board exists in ten years it will be fun to revisit this thread.

Will greatly miss the high stakes early season games.  Most people will be excited for this and it will make championship weekend more interesting, but I predict we'll look back in a few years and realize a lot of the early season excitement is gone.

Utah and Tulane have no chance, but it's some TV money for them

But did you notice that in recent years, especially after the 4 team playoff was initiated, the quality of early season games across the board went up?  Teams no longer have to fear losing a early game.  I think in most years there will be a lot of 2 and maybe 3 loss teams that get in that can be really good and make it thru the first or second round.

Generally feels fine to me.

I’m never sure how to separate my understanding of watching old national title races from youthful naïveté. The argument that Week 1 could kill a contender’s title hopes both meant a contender could have 10-11 games without those stakes, and that a contender simply shouldn’t schedule a good game at all.
