Message: [QUOTE="Moontan, post: 430768, member: 166"] Not that quickly. The upcoming contract is for 2 cycles of 6 years. I could see a change being made after the 6th year, possibly announced a couple of years earlier. While I would like to see an 8-team playoff with the winner from the Big Five conferences (conference championship game required... sorry Big X/XII) and 3 at-large teams, I suspect that they'll simply have a committee with no automatic qualifiers. If the Big Five winners are all part of the playoff then the existing contract bowls can be used... 4 quarter-finals and 2 semi-finals. If they go to a "best 8" format via the committee then they'll still need some contract bowls for the case where a couple of the Big Five conferences are blocked out by the SEC. [/QUOTE]
