Do you and the other 7 people with that knowledge proud of yourselves?  Cool.  Let's alter 'invent' to 'introduce' to the American fan.  Now you can get over the semantics and address the IDEA.

Again, avoiding the topic.  Sheesh.

Canada is also in America. North America even, just like us. They have four Conferences, each of which has a Conference Tournament at seasons end, with 3 to 6 participants, depending on the size of the Conference. After that, the four Conference Champions play in a pair of "Bowl Games" that double as the National Semifinals, then the winners square off in a NCG. 

It's actually a pretty solid format, aside from the fact that the Atlantic Conference Champion doesn't have any business playing in the National Semifinals every year. Absolute cannon fodder, for whoever draws that lucky straw.

Yup, made me laugh for sure.  She made an absolute fool of herself and the honorable gentleman from Houston just kept egging her on to dig herself deeper and deeper.  It was cute.
Heh!

It was uncomfortable to watch her trolling.
But she did give UT a break on the UT vs. TCU won-loss stat.

What I found most amusing was watching all of the reps shitting all over The University of Texas, in an attempt to... get Texas to stay?  That's a bold move Cotton, let's see how it plays out...

That is pretty amusing to me.

Maybe "adapt" would be a useful term.

If the Pac 12 absorbs the Big 12, then the Big Ten and Pac 12 could withdraw from the CFB Playoffs, and bring back the Rose Bowl.

Then the Playoff would no longer be for the "National Championship" as it would be reduced to some goofy, ridiculous regional thing that the hillbillies do in the Southeast when they aren't kissing their cousins, while the rest of the Nation is all in on the Rose Bowl.

Folks on this board don't seem keen to adapting to much of anything.

Don't forget about the west coast apathy of college football:  for every pasty white 60 year old jerking it to the sunset over the San Gabriel Mtns, there's someone in CA that doesn't even know it exists.

I like this suggestion.  It would blow up the idea of a centralized, run-by-ESPN, conferences-aligned-by-ESPN college football championship.

Maybe then we could go back to choosing the national champion(s) the right way--with bowls and polls.

Well yeah, but if it only has the SEC and ACC then no one outside of the South East will care. 

The rest of the country would be doing the whole Rose Bowl thing, in this scenario. 

If the Southeast champion wanted to be considered the National Champion outside of the Southeast, they'd have to take on the Rose Bowl winner. Or they could just succeed from the Union, up to them.
