I want to revisit something many of us were discussing awhile back.
We were talking about the different Conference Championship games and the divisions teams were placed in.
We were looking at the SEC at the time as we thought the Big Ten was going that way.
What typically happens when the top team in the East and the Top team in the West have good records,,remembering that both may NOT have the same or even close records, they play for the CCG anyways.
Now coming on late is the NEXT team in the conference, playing better or having beat the team that will eventually win the division ..... What happens with that third team ?
Can that team go to the MNC game even though they did not WIN thier division ?
I know the people that decide these things had discussed this before, but you never know from year to year.
IF that third team can NOT go, then they ought to change the way they go about getting the MNC game teams qualified.
Just make it so the top two teams in each conference goes to a small playoff, you've already determined that only the top two from a conference can go....
Thats would allow 12 teams right from the beginning (6 conferences) and take 4 at large teams and lets get it on !
