Regulation in CFB, in other words: Promotion and demotion.
For instance, take the English soccer league:
Premier League 20 teams Top flight teams
Championship League 24 teams Rest of the best
League 1 24 teams Either dying or growing
League 2 24 teams Nowhere to go but up…
Basically, programs who would do well would rise in the ranks, while teams who struggle drop down a league to face against lower tier competition in hopes of getting back into the higher leagues. Now while Soccer has nearly 100 teams, and CFB having hundreds, this would surely be expanded.
Division 1(West, South, Central, East for a 4 team playoff).
Division 2
Division 3
Division 4.
Teams who do well would have a chance to rise up a division and be able to prove themselves against top tier competition. For instance, Mount Union, Grand Valley State, and North Dakota State would easily climb up a division as they do so well consistently, where as schools struggling like Idaho, Kansas, or Colorado would fall a division if they struggle consistently.
this would allow the best of the best to compete for the national championship. Division 1 Championship is the big prize, the be all end all. A Division 2/3/4 Championship would guarantee entry into an upper division, and runner ups would as well. However, entry into an upper division requires 3 or more consistent years in a division, like playoff entries and runs and championships.
I think this would stockpile the best talent in the country to compete against one another and would give CFB fans something to drool over. This can also allow teams to go over to places, like say, Oregon vs. Mount Union, and have better access to recruiting in a certain state(like North Dakota State vs. Alabama). It would also allow lower tier teams to get their act sorted together playing against lower talent and get better, as well have a shot of taking over a lower-Upper division team.
What would you think of this?
