Reactions to Alabama getting in the playoffs over Florida State.
The coming 12-team playoff is not enough. FBS needs a FCS-style (and like DII and DIII) 16-team playoff. The five FBS league champs, plus the six Group-of-Five champs, plus five of the highest rated remaining teams. That would be a fan and media monster..
