farmteam Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 14, 2013 -> 10:28 AM) The big mistake in this discussion was bringing up ND. Ding ding ding! Such an easy thread derail. Can you imagine the fun if there were some super controversial call in a Ohio State-Notre Dame game? I'd sit back and grab some popcorn to watch Rock and HH.

LittleHurt05 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 14, 2013 -> 10:50 AM) Yes, 24 team playoffs. So they are able to do it with a short season and even more teams. The Ivy League & SWAC decline participation, but every other conference champion makes the playoffs. So nearly every team has a chance to win the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and the teams that make it to the further rounds of the playoffs play 13-15 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 14, 2013 -> 06:57 PM) Where do you play the games though? On campus until the quarterfinals, when you switch to the bowl sites. The lower levels play on campus until the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Watching Illinois and Indiana side by side salt the bar. It's like they're competing on who can be more terrible. Hoosier currently lead since their we can't take a snap and that awful delay of game penalty. I have a feeling Illinois will answer that soon.
