You have made this an impossible discussion with your holier than thou and "i know everything" attitude.

How about you get the fact that a simple just take the top 8 format is completely unrealistic. There's no way you could get the conferences to sign on, and besides that issue it still leaves out the mid-majors almost ever year (and it'll get worse because teams will never schedule a Boise St or Utah if that loss could knock them out of the top 8. All non-conference games will be complete cupcakes so teams can ensure that they have the best possible record and therefore the best shot at a top 8 finish). A top 16 is a bit more palatable to the conferences, but it allows teams like Troy to reap the rewards of playoff participation while a 3rd place SEC team sits at home. Sorry, but I don't see the upside there and I don't see why the SEC would be up to hand a fistful of cash over to a Sun Belt team at the expense of one of their own.
I don't think I know everything on this, but I'm sick of hearing the same proposal over and over again. You don't counter the points I make as to why it isn't acceptable, you just keep pushing on through with your head in the clouds. If you can find a way to make it work I'm all for a playoff, but a little attachment to reality would be nice.
