Why aren’t the G6 threatening to sue for anti-trust violations??! They’re about to go to a 24 team playoff and still only 1 slot for G6….

Some aggressively mediocre 8-4 SEC teams will get in and still only one guaranteed spot for the G6. Why don’t they threaten to sue the playoff committee? There’s really nothing more to lose. Absolutely stupid the playoff is so big and can’t guaranteed spots for every FBS conference champ.

The FCS playoff format is a great example. If the congressional bill doesn’t pass, there’s no anti-trust exemption. Why shouldn’t the G6 sue and try to get some more representation in the new playoffs? They’re just rolling over for the sake of the other conferences’ scraps!!! (I know the answer is money but is there any other legal reason they shouldn’t try, law suits can crest leverage…maybe at least a second or third G6 spot??)
