Like the putative NCAA 16 team playoff, I am ceiling walking here. I have used the Committee's ultimate rankings and added the 'new B12' into The Alliance and into the equation. 

 

This format satisfies the ACC's desire to have no more than 8 teams in the run for a title.   

 

8. Pitt - ACC at 1 Michigan - B1G -  FOX

 

5. Baylor - AL at 4 Ohio State - AL - TNT

 

7 Utah - Pac-12 at 2 Cincinnati- B12 - CBS

 

6. Oklahoma State - AL at 3. Notre Dame - AL - NBC

 

Semifinals - Atlanta and Las Vegas.

 

Champ Game - Rose Bowl 5PM eastern on January 1st.

 

As much money as having the SEC in the mix? No. But still a significant amount of $ and kiss Disney/ESPN good-bye.

Jon, I am going to add this to my Santa Christmas wish.

 

With all the money available and eager buyers (Fox, CBS, NBC and streaming networks) the timing is right.

 

The BIG, ACC, BIG 12 and PAC could carve their niche. Revenues would rise for ALL.

 

Imagine how much money for a SEC/ALLIANCE NATTY???????

 

Well when pigs fly....... 

More $ with the SEC in, no doubt. But stop the nonsense that G5 teams other than Cincy this season have a chance at a PO spot and how much $ does the G5 being involved bring to the table?

 

Go with The Run For The Roses as hypothesized and you have No. 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11 and 12 in the 'playoff.' 

 

THIS would bring in plenty of bank without it Just Meaning More.
