Good points by both.
I would trade. But I also think that the "post season" should consist of a 6 team only play off system. It's rare that someone ranked 7th or more can boast a record to play for a National title. So with an only 6 team play off system, it would almost insure that the regular season would NOT be diminished. I agree that most of that article was nonsense. I'd like to see something to the effect of -
On a rotating schedule.
Dec 24 Cotton #6 v #3
Dec 24 Orange #5 v #4
Dec 31 Fiesta #1 v Worst winner from the Coton/Orange
Dec 31 Rose #2 v Best winner from the Coton/Orange
Jan 7 Sugar Championship Game
While there would not be extra games (revenue), this system was meant more to determine WHO should actually play for the title. Which is what I think most fans would like.
