The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Why Winning is Hell: Chris Long on Tua & The "Pick Your Opponent" Playoff Draft

I go divisional round that I would get rid of the seventh team.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Why Winning is Hell: Chris Long on Tua & The "Pick Your Opponent" Playoff Draft

It's it's one too many.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

it's just too much.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You don't need, I mean, because the games are so close already that you don't need to throw another team in there to make it more, the vibe more of a coin flip.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I think the merit of a seven team or, or 16 or ultimately is going to be 18, obviously.

Um,

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I think the merit achieved over the course of those four months is enough.

You don't need to jam another team in there to muck things up.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Because what you want ultimately, at least in my opinion, as a man of merit, who believes in merit, I think that you should get buys for winning at least the top two spots.

If you throw them all into a jumble, it leads to a mess, in my opinion.

Well, that's why college football used to be better, and now that's gone out the window too.

But when you lose a game, even if it's the first game of the season, if you get whipped like Notre Dame or like Alabama did by Florida State, that's it.

You have no claim to being in a tournament for the best team because that game counted in the regular season.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

So I hear you, and I love this broader idea.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

My spin on what you just said is, how cool would this be?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Especially when you only have a number one seed.

But you could do this before the wild card round as well.

The two teams with buys get to choose who they play.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Why Winning is Hell: Chris Long on Tua & The "Pick Your Opponent" Playoff Draft

Oh, yeah.

How about that?
