College Football Playoff Expansion is Pointless

It’s futile, hypocritical, and simple-minded

I’ll side with the nay-sayers — expanding the College Football Playoff to 12 teams is an act of hypocrisy, futility, and simple minded “more is more” rationalizing.

We can start with the hypocrisy point, it being the shortest and the most damning. More games and a lengthened season will result in more injuries over the aggregate. That seems undeniable. That’s part of the reason the number of notable hold-outs from premier bowl games has crept up in recent seasons, and no one blames the players for it. They need to protect their future.
