Oregon Faces Setback Before Playoff, McElroy Suggests Solution
College football analyst Greg McElroy criticized the structure of the 12-team College Football Playoff, arguing that the current system unfairly disadvantages top-seeded teams like Oregon, despite their undefeated status. McElroy suggests eliminating first-round byes for conference champions, as lower-seeded teams like Penn State may face easier paths. He proposes a straightforward 1-12 seeding system, though acknowledges potential biases in the selection process.
