How about this plan?


Aug 10, 2020, 2:28 PM

Set up a 16 team playoff bracket with play hopefully to begin mid-November. Each power 5 league gets 3 slots and the highest ranked Group of 5 gets the remaining spot. Conferences decide which teams will represent them, but teams must play at least 4 conference games to qualify.

B1G could wait to start its conference slate until mid-October if it wanted to, while real conferences could play 8 or so conference games starting a month earlier. If a conference decides not to participate or fails to meet the 4 game threshold, their teams' playoff games would be forfeited, resulting in first round byes for the highest ranked teams.

I guess if we are going to experiment, this is the year to do it.

No. The BIG and PAC 12 want to pussyfoot around, why should the other conferences hold their seasons up?

How would this hold other conferences up? We could play 10 conference games if we want to. Still, even if we went to the final, it would be only 15 games...no more than a typical season. If we get into the season and the playoffs are not safe to play, then we just have a normal conference championship game and call it a season. Might work.

Conferences that play a fuller schedule should be much better prepared for the playoffs.

I misunderstood that you were asking everybody to hold until mid October.

Point remains. They want out, they stay out. Let them incur the consequences.

Just play the games as currently scheduled.
