5+1+2 Model
« on: December 06, 2021, 05:06:22 PM »
I'm really not in favor of Playoff Expansion but I see it as inevitable and if it IS going to happen then I think the best model is a 5+1+2 with:

  • The five P5 Champions
  • The highest ranked G5 Champion
  • The two highest ranked remaining teams
With the caveats that:
  • The four highest ranked league champions host the first round, and
  • Reseed after round one such that if #8 knocks off #1 they don't take over the easiest path. 

This years' first round match-ups would be:
  • #12 Pitt (ACC) at #1 Alabama (SEC)
  • #11 Utah (P12) at #2 Michigan (B1G)
  • #5 Notre Dame at #4 Cincy (G5)
  • #3 UGA at #7 Baylor (B12)

Prior year first round match-ups would have been, 2020:
  • #25 Oregon (P12) at #1 Bama (SEC)
  • #8 Cincy (G5) at #2 Clemson (ACC)
  • #5 aTm at #3 tOSU (B1G)
  • #4 Notre Dame at #6 Oklahoma (B12)

2019:
  • #17 Memphis (G5) at #1 LSU (SEC)
  • #7 Oklahoma (B12) at #2 Clemson (ACC)
  • #6 UF at #3 tOSU (B1G)
  • #4 UGA at #5 Oregon (P12)

2018:
  • #13 Washington (P12) at #1 Clemson (ACC)
  • #11 UCF (G5) at #2 Bama (SEC)
  • #6 LSU at #3 tOSU (B1G)
  • #5 Notre Dame at #4 Oklahoma (B12)

2017:
  • #12 UCF (G5) at #1 Clemson (ACC)
  • #8 USC (P12) at #2 Oklahoma (B12)
  • #6 Wisconsin at #3 UGA (SEC)
  • #4 Bama at #5 tOSU (B1G)

2016:
  • #15 WMU (G5) at #1 Bama (SEC)
  • #7 Oklahoma (B12) at #2 Clemson (ACC)
  • #6 Michigan at #4 Washington (P12)
  • #3 tOSU at #5 Penn State (B1G)
2015:
  • #18 Houston (G5) at #1 Clemson (ACC)
  • #7 tOSU at #2 Bama (SEC)
  • #6 Stanford (P12) at #3 MSU (B1G)
  • #5 Iowa at #4 OU (B12)

2014:
  • #20 BoiseSt at #1 Bama (SEC)
  • #7 MissSt at #2 Oregon (P12)
  • #6 TCU at #3 FSU (ACC)
  • #5 Baylor (B12) at #4 tOSU (B1G)

they are going to 12. Dan Patrick reported that a few months back, believe it's already been approved and will go into effect either 2023 or 2025.

Agree, although I prefer to call it 5+2+1.

That was the word several months back, but once the SEC announced the additions of TX and OU, the other conferences all put a hold on it.

So now, there is no timeline for expansion, and I think at this point, something with fewer than 12 teams could be back on the table.

Will it still be 5+1+2 when the Big 12 becomes a G6 conference?

I'd be surprised if the B12 loses its P5 status, with respect to official voting capability and whatnot.  

Fans might consider it a G5, but fans are stupid and already consider it a G5, despite it being significantly better than both the ACC and the PAC for most of the past decade.

This, I think is the most interesting question.

I wouldn’t mind 4-2-2. Though is all kind of semantics at this point.

Sure. We'll get two of our old rivals back on the schedule regularly.

I liked the proposed 12 team model.
