They want to keep increasing the number of teams in the playoffs because it's only the followers of those teams that even watch the playoffs. No one else cares. Game attendance and TV viewership is very poor; big $ loser for the NCAA.HelenaHandBasket said:get'em_griz said:Big Sky Commissioner is looking at expanding the playoffs...

Hopefully the NCAA will not be willing to lose even more money from FCS playoffs by adding more games. Already too many.HelenaHandBasket said:kemajic said:They want to keep increasing the number of teams in the playoffs because it's only the followers of those teams that even watch the playoffs.

Good idea, but often there is no way to tell which team won their conference, e.g., the BSC.HelenaHandBasket said:kemajic said:Hopefully the NCAA will not be willing to lose even more money from FCS playoffs by adding more games. Already too many.
Well, they should probably just let teams that win their conference participate and reduce the number then...since it is a big financial burden for the NCAA.
