RE: NFL cancels the Pro Bowl
(08-28-2026 07:56 AM)Fighting Muskie Wrote:  I’m curious what the impact will be on the NFL schedule—will they still take a week off between the Conference Championships and the Super Bowl? If so, this could be a great opportunity for college football.

With all the expanded CFP talks, the NYE/D bowl season could become the round of 16 rather than the quarterfinals.

Work the quarterfinals in around the NFL playoffs.

Pro Bowl weekend becomes CFP semifinals weekend.

Play the CFP national title the day before the Super Bowl.

With that timeline, no one loses their CCGs, Army-Navy still get a special time slot and there’s plenty of time to cull a 20-24 team playoff field down to 16 in time for the big bowls.

Interesting idea. Now just figure how that works for the transfer portal and players that are transferring in the 2nd semester that starts in January for most schools.
