Abstract
- The article discusses the disappointing outcomes of the inaugural 12-team college football playoff, with all first-round games resulting in one-sided blowouts and no upsets. The format, seeding, and selection criteria of the expanded playoff are called into question, as higher-ranked teams dominated lower-ranked opponents. Suggestions for potential fixes, such as following basketball's tournament model, are offered to address the current issues with the playoff system. [Extracted from the article]
