[QUOTE="CountryFrog, post: 3226050, member: 70667"] I believe this is ultimately why they went to 12 instead of 6 or 8. The powers that be wanted (or felt compelled) to have a guaranteed spot for a G5 team but also wanted to make sure the major conference champs get in. A 6 team playoff would've meant no at large bids and an 8 team would've meant only a couple. I think the SEC and Big 10 power brokers wanted to make sure they had the ability to get 2-4 teams into the playoff every year. [/QUOTE]
