Alabama’s pummeling of the LSU Tigers has rejuvenated college football playoff talk once again—except this time, it’s for real. A high-ranking BCS official told the Sporting News, “It gets done,” after the Tide’s 21-0 blowout. As expected, college football fans across the country happily welcomed the news. But what does it mean for high school athletes?
Analysts have debated what such a dramatic change to the BCS landscape would do for universities, conferences and players. The most common concern is money, with bowl organizers worrying how a change would impact their revenue streams. But we’re more interested in how a playoff would affect high school athletes. And we’re turning to you, our STACKletes, for some answers.
How would a college football playoff system impact your decision-making during the recruiting process? Is there a certain conference you’ve always wanted to join? Would a national playoff open up your college selection? Does no BCS point system mean you’re not as concerned about the conference? Would a playoff system not impact your decision-making process at all?
