Great G5 win in the Peach Bowl

2-0 in the CFP era, and had a winning record in BCS bowls as well.

Extend the playoffs to 8 teams with 5 P5 champs, the G5 winner, and two wild cards.

Extending the playoffs past 4 teams will begin to put a major strain on the bodies of the players. We cant keep asking these young men to play more games. We saw how sore and banged up our guys were after 13 games. They would need to take a regular season game out to compensate. I like the way it is right now. The two best teams are playing, as they did last year.

You do realize that Appalachian played in a 24-team playoff with 22 fewer scholarships for the past three decades, right?

There might be some good reasons to refrain from expanding the CFBP, but that isn't one of them.

Actually it is. We don't have that kinda depth and though we might have competed against other FCS/1-aa schools for it, we are nowhere near competing against P5's for it.

With 11-game regular seasons and no conference title games.

The difference is one game - in FCS, two teams played 15 games. At 8 teams, two FBS teams would play 16. Not sure it's a huge difference, but that's the argument.

11+3=14 right?

12 + 3 = 15
