Playoffs? PLAYOFFS? Don't talk to me
about playoffs?! [Again ...]
It is the college football
post-season again. It's 2016 and again we have
controversy as to who legitimately belongs in the
playoff. The more things change, yes. The more they
remain the same. I first proposed a sixteen-team
playoff ... in 1994. [ ... ]
The landscape has changed somewhat
since back then. There have been comings and goings -
and reorganizations - of NCAA college conferences.
Presently we have "The Power 5" and the "Group of 5".
I now believe the sweet spot for
playoff teams is eight. Take the 5 conference winners
and choose 3 more by our "Blue Ribbon Panel" from the
remaining teams to fill the tournament.

Another Trivia Question ...
We will ALWAYS have: "What team was the
LAST to play for a tie in CFB (0-0)
and the
FIRST to play - and WIN - in OT (beat Fresno St).
PS:
Oregon was the only school in 2015-16 to make the
post season in football, basketball, and baseball.
In college football, Oregon :
A - had the nation's longest Top 25 streak at 9
straight seasons through the 2015 season.
B - is the only team in CFB to win 9+ games in
each of the last 9 seasons (including 2015).
C - has (as of the 2017 Oregon State game) 80 games
of 40+ points since 2009. A wide margin over the next
closest team to do so...
D - owns the NCAA record for consecutive games with
a TD pass (82 as of the 2016 Virginia game)
dating back to 4 September, 2010....
