    I like it! About dam time.

    I would have liked to see 1 and 2 get first round bye. 3 plays 6 and 4 plays 5. Winner of 4 vs. 5 plays #1 and winner of 3 vs. 6 plays #2 in the semis. Then winner of those play for NC. But this is a good start IMO.

    Now seriously, how hard was that? How many years of that BCS BS did we have to put up with? I'm glad they finally did it.

    So, has Obama taken credit for this yet:busted:

    The first step to having 4 super-conferences. Win the conference championship,head to the NC playoff. Just an opinion.

    Too early, the polls haven't determined if it is popular or not.:o

    It'll be good! Too bad it won't start until 2014.

    Agree with the article that this is a 100% improvement over what we have now... Wish they could have made it happen sooner than 2014 - but nothing is ever perfect....

    I think 8 is the perfect number for football, and should use the 4 current BCS bowls as the play in games so as to not rob them of revenue.

    Awesome move regardless. Now the rest of the country will have one more shot at dethroning the SEC each year, unless they remove the silly rule about only 2 teams from one conference, in which case watch out. lol
