Is it time to have a play-off system to decide the National Championship in Division 1 football?

It’s long past time. But in this case it’s pretty clear who the #1 team should be. Boise State vs. Alabama would look about like Florida vs. Cincinnati looked.

I think that the BCS is enough of a burden. There is not comparison between the schedules of Boise State and Alabama. Look what happened when Florida played Cincinnati, also undefeated.

@Snarp yeah, think that would be true, but remember a couple of years ago, Boise State beat Oklahoma! Have been to most of the home games Alabama played this year and they are a great team, no doubt.

@Marina well, if you had a play-off system, it would allow teams like Florida, LSU, Ohio State, Penn State etc, to have a second chance at beating Alabama.

Would be interesting…

I think a good start would be for each conference to have a decent championship system, like the SEC does. At least then you can match up conference champions and conference runner ups, without really stretching out the season.

No.

@Snarp Lou Holtz has wanted a play-off system for a longtime…cannot remember his format, but it was interesting. Lot of the coaches wanted a play-off system!

@JJJones Just about everybody wants a playoff system except for the ones making lots of money from the current system.

@Snarp loll..ditto!

Amerian football, Rugby for wimps. Just one guy talking.
