2. I don't understand
why there has not been a hybridization yet. Combine the bowls with a playoff and the money will continue to roll in. Make the bowls part of a 4 or 8 team playoff on a rotating schedule like the BCS does with the big bowls now.

1-4 in the Rose
2-3 in the Fiesta
Winners in the Sugar, then rotate every year.

I can't understand any objection. And it certainly wouldn't lengthen the season.

An NCAA Division One football playoff would make March Madness seem like a Tea Party.
