Message: [QUOTE="BlazeOrange, post: 5317585, member: 683"] Significantly reduce the post season bowls to match up non-playoff conference champions and the first few power schools left out. This retains the idea of rewarding teams that actually had outstanding seasons. Have somewhere between 4 and 8 games and be done in December. Move portal into January. Convert the rest of the bowls into preseason Classics with conference tie ins based on prior season standings, or at least loosely so. All matchups won't be ideal, but it will force a ton of significant interconference matchups before the rankings become entrenched. You could even expand it and create a big Opening Week Extravaganza. Rematch the title game or put the finalists vs the semifinal loser from the other bracket, match up the other playoff teams, etc. [/QUOTE]
