    More games = more tickets, more concessions, more games to watch, more commercials all ====== more $$$$$

    That's what I would think any way

    .... I still don't see the merit of 6,.. why give the top two rated teams a bye?.. Saban and Meyer don't need any more advantage, they'd be setting around doing nothing,.. instead we could be watching another playoff game.

    No on 6, Yes on 8

    We need a 16 team playoff. Only one more game, but anyone with any kind of claim would get in. More football fo all!

    Intellectually it makes sense, but it could be argued the bye hurts. Rust and all that.

    nah, it just makes the strong, even stronger. Those with byes heal up, while the others face fierce competition.

    Top 2 teams have earned it, but I like 8. Keep it simple. And $.
