Accepting this plan will not lead to every FBS champion getting a spot in the playoff somewhere down the road.

We either demand it now or it's not happening later.

If they don't agree to it, then they have no brain. All they would accomplish is to have the autonomous conferences plus a small number of other schools break away, leaving them behind with a lot less money than they had before. They essentially would be relegated back to the equivalent of FCS which most of them ran away from in the past.

So, they can take a stand based on some nebulous "principle" and commit virtual suicide, or they can accept reality. Of course, it's also possible that future legislation will do them in anyway.

The 6-6 plan is backed by the SEC commissioner, ND, the PAC and MWC. I seriously doubt it will not be accepted.

ACC will like it as it puts pressure on ND. B1G will like it as it hurts ND.

If you go to 8 its not going to enough at-large bids. Go to 16 and no reward for finishing the season in the top 4. It sounds very much like the sweet spot.

I don't see how this does anything but help ND and their independent status. They just went from competing with everyone including conference champions for 4 spots to competing with the bottom 4 conference champions for 6 spots. They really do not care that they don't qualify for a first round bye since they don't have to play a CCG.

If anything this tells the ACC any off chance or hope you had of ND joining for football is dead.


This. 100% this. Lol, Tim Brando has hated ND all of his life. I have watched this man seethe with ND hate since I first moved to Baton Rouge in 1983 and he was the local sports anchor.

If he said that ND should turn left, it would be in ND's best interests to turn right.

He is totally wrong but he has shilled for ND to join a conference for decades.
