Steve Spurrier loves to tell the story about playing golf years ago with then-North Carolina basketball coach Dean Smith and then-Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams.
It was sometime in the early 1990s, and the three coaches were at a charity event in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
"Are you guys going to get a playoff in football?" Smith asked Spurrier, who was only a couple of years into his tenure as Florida's football coach.
Spurrier shrugged and said, "Aaah, I don't know. Everybody just sort of plays their season, then the bowls come in and pick the teams they want, and then after they play, they get a bunch of sportswriters together and they decide who the national champion is going to be.
