3 Changes That Will FIX The College Football Playoffs | HARD PASS Ep. #79
The College Football Playoff has made a MASSIVE step in the right direction, but it’s still not perfect 👀
Doug Kezirian breaks down why the CFP is already far better than the old poll-and-computer system, why the four remaining teams prove expansion was necessary, and why three specific changes would finally make the playoff system work the way it was always intended.
Doug explains why long layoffs between games are hurting top seeds, why playoff games should be played on college campuses instead of half-empty neutral sites, and why the biggest remaining issue lies with the Playoff Committee itself. From rust after byes, to crowd issues at bowl games, to the lack of transparency and built-in bias among decision-makers, Doug lays out a clear, logical blueprint for how the CFP can crown a true champion on the field.

“We can’t have a month between games, its absolutely nonsense and the players are in fact negatively affected … it’s only been 2 years of the 12 team format and only 1 team with a bye advanced” — Doug Kezirian
