"College Football Playoff Expansion Sparks Misery Among Fans"
The upcoming expansion of the college football playoff to a 12-team format will change the dynamics of the sport, robbing it of the intensity and high stakes that make it unique. The current system forces teams to live with the consequences of a loss for an entire year, creating a sense of desperation and passion. However, with the expanded playoff, teams like Ohio State and Michigan will know they have a guaranteed spot in the postseason regardless of the outcome, diminishing the intensity and emotional investment of regular season games. While the expansion will bring more teams into the mix, it also means losing something that can never be regained.
