Message: [QUOTE="kyleslamb, post: 7772, member: 895"] The groundwork is already being laid for a playoff system. In fact, it's not been reported any, but there are discussions ongoing in the NCAA about creating three subdivisions for football instead of just two (this comes from a couple friends I have in athletics that receive newsletters and are privy to some discussions). Now ask yourself: what is the biggest benefit of three subdivisions? Creating a playoff system in the upper division that would not have to cater automatic bids to the middle-tier conferences. By going to three subdivisions, they will then have a football playoff among the four major conferences (or five if the Big East survives in some capacity) and will create nearly a billion in annual revenue--a small percentage of which will be shared among the two lower subdivisions. Mark my words: a playoff is coming. [/QUOTE]
