This shows the exact weakness of the bowl system. Michigan's season is OVER. If they would have a 16 team playoff (4 weekend), they would still have a shot. So bootleg

You lose to Appy state at home an you deserve to be eliminated. They are no cinch to be in the top 16 at the end of the year.

I agree, while I like betting on College football, i could never be a hardcore fan because a winner is essentially chosen, they don't have to fight for it.

Not exactly. You still pretty much have to win all your games to be in contention and how many teams do that? I would favor a playoff but I can't condone a sport just because I don't like how they come up with a champion. In the end what does it really matter unless the team you bet covers the spread?

a 16 team playoff like the other divisions play would be awesome!
cut the season back to 11 games give automatic berths to conference champions and a couple at-large bids.
