God damnit this is why the playoffs are expanding isn’t it

The actual payout from the 24 team playoff is a minimal increase. They're expanding so that these P4 schools that are spending obscene amounts of money on their team get a better chance to make the playoff and it's so fucking stupid

Now I don't love this term I'm about to use, but it KINDA sounds like the playoff is expanding so Texas (among others) can get a participation trophy...

Nah but a pulling strings for a generic mid SEC team is what they are pulling for.
