I'm would love more games, but there comes a point where we have to be considerate to the 90% of student athletes who did in fact come to play school and don't get any NIL money.
If there are no more CCGs, and all of the teams that qualify for the playoffs are equally depleted, then that resolves one of the complaints I have. I still think automatic berths are arbitrary as hell and will invite intra-conference controversy about who would get in and who would be left out. This season it would have been Bama vs SCe vs Ole Miss. The two who get left out would then feel a perhaps unwarranted sense of entitlement to one of the at-large berths, and it would fuck up the chances of a possibly more interesting team like UNLV or a 1-loss MAC or Sun Belt team. Teams like Wichita State, St Louis, and Northern Iowa are what make March Madness so fun and we should be trying to replicate that with CFP.
