Expand it to 64, with 4 more play-in games.

Or just F it and everyone gets a trophy.

Like the bowls! Lotta trophies. 

(The trophy metaphor is so weird and flexible)

Only for the winners.

How can the ACC be worse than the Big 12? 

The ACC still has all of their teams, while the Big 12 has been raided six ways to Sunday.

The ACC has always been terrible.  Keeping the same bad teams wasn't ever going to make them any better.  Clemson's flash in the pan is now over, and Florida State and Miami aren't anywhere near their all-time peaks.  

The ACC is still pretty good at basketball though, so the good news for them, is that it's now basketball season.

Lots of D2, D3, and HS teams also "won their conference". They aren't included because those conferences aren't on the same level. .

The D2, D3 and HS conference champions do indeed make their playoffs.

The betting lines are wider than I expected.

Now I feel bad for poor Maryland.  Not even missed in the ACC I guess

And I don't know that the ACC is worse, it's just that the top is worse.  Blame FSU, Clemson, UNC, VT, for that.  I think the middle and bottom of the ACC are still better than the bottom of the Big XII

well they certainly appear to be crawling back into the ring - The U just might make the big dance this year. And it was just in'23 FSU went 13-0 and may have gotten there had not Jordan Travis had his leg annihilated. So those two programs will be hanging around for the foreseeable future being right smack dab in the middle of rich recruiting real estate. Not sure about the dweeb dabo it would be nice to see him swilling trough water again

[OrangeAfroMan]

We're in year 22 of Miami never winning the ACC.  

In that time, Wake Forest won it.  GA Tech won it.  Duke just won it.  VA Tech won it 4 times.  Pitt won it.
And that's omitting FSU and Clemson owning it over and over.

It doesn't matter if their conference sucks. What matters is they won. All the losers can apply to JMU's conference next year.

Stop Defending Losers

At the 2024 Ohio HS Div 1 Track Championships a guy from Westerville Central won the 400M dash with a time of 45.65.  

At the Paris Olympics a British guy finished second in the 400M with a time of 43.44.  

By your "logic", the Olympic Silver Medalist is a "loser" and the kid from Westerville Central should be in the next World Championship.  

This is toddler logic.

By your logic the winners of the heats shouldn't advance to the next race but instead a committee should vote on who races each other.

How about we have the best runners in the Championship?  

How about we have the best CFB teams in the CFP?

How about we let the "best" be determined by winning games instead of poindexters voting for them?
