As you all know college football is moving towards a four team playoff to decide the National Champion.  This logic hasn't been incorporated into NCAA14 so we will continue to utilize the BCS.  However, I thought it may be fun to have our own end of season tourney for just the users to decide our mythical user National Champion.  At the very least it will be a way to pass the time during the offseason stages.  There are two options:

Four Team Playoff

Just like real college football, we could go with a four team playoff by choosing the top 4 ranked Users according to the final Coaches Poll.

Twelve Team Playoff

We could basically open it up to everyone and seed everyone 1-12 based on the final Coaches Poll.  The Top 4 seeds would get first round byes.

The big downer is that we would play with the default rosters instead of the Dynasty rosters.  This wouldn't be mandatory but I figured it may be a fun way to pass the time during the offseason.  Let me know what you think and whether you'd rather see a 4 or 12 team playoff.  I'd lean towards 12 this way every gets involved.

Since we'd have to use default rosters anyway, I like the idea of an annual 12-team tourney. I'd say 4 teams if we could use our real teams, because then we could actually call it a true national champ.

I agree, 12 team tourney with default rosters.

It's a lot of work, but we could create the top 4 teams via teambuilder and then import them for use in unranked games if you want to go that route. Just takes a bit of time to create the rosters. The jerseys/etc are already done. Coaching skills wouldn't be incorporated though either.
