What are the chances of going to a 13 (or more) game CFB regular season?

I think more likely would be the shrinking of the regular season with the expansion of the playoffs.

Zero. They're going to eventually need to expand the playoff. 

Pay the kids and then maybe they can have a conversation. 

I'd rather go in a different direction: Cut the regular season back down to 11 games (+ Conference Title Game) in favor of a 16-team playoff.  People will argue that it will water down the regular season, but it will guarantee we get matchups that we rarely see in September.  I think there are plenty of benefits for the kids that could go in a diary, but more kids would probably see the field if the margin for error to getting into the playoff is greater.

The regular season should be pared back to 11 games max, and the playoffs expanded to at least 8 teams.

As more games are piled on the players, the justifications and excuses for not paying them decrease.

I'll give a different answer.  It's possible, but I definitely don't want it.

"For every time there is a season", as the saying goes. 

Pre-Labor Day weekend is still summer.  I'd rather be at the lake in Northern Michigan, as I traditionally do that weekend.

2 weekends post Thanksgiving (and beyond) is now Christmas Holiday season and, at that point, winter.

Regular season college football doesn't feel right for either time (IMO).

I don't even like the B1G ending their regular season on Thanksgiving Weekend.  Michigan plays Ohio State every year that Saturday, of course.  Biggest game of each school's season.  And the students really aren't there, instead scattered around back home!  I still wish that game (and all the B1G finales) was the Saturday before Thanksgiving.

Change like that is super gradual.  Athletic Directors want more games for more money.  Coaches do not! 

The regular season needs capped at 12, I would actually prefer one preseason scrimmage if we are to maintain ccg and a playoff.  A uniform schedule across the p5 needs to be instituted for fcs games, #conf games, ccg and playoffs. 

I do think the money will dictate we go to 8 team playoff sooner rather than later. 

I've been thinking about this topic too...

Thinking outside the box a bit (and counter to the history of College Football), would anyone be willing to add two games a year if the quarters were cut by 3 min. ea (more in line with high school football)?  For the regular season at least, it would mean slightly less total minutes than now ("player safety"), but adds the potential for more games.

Expand playoffs.

I think a lot of fans would rather see regular season reduced a game any playoffs expanded, but I don't expect any changes to occur unless they generate equal or greater revenue. I don't think an expanded playoff will be enough to offset the revenue lost by reducing the season by a game. I think there's about a 130 teams in the FBS some of the games cut by reducing schedule by a game will be against FCS teams so maybe we're talking 70-80 fewer games a year in FBS stadiums. I'm not sure if the added revenue of an eight team playoff will exceed money lost, additional I would expect the traditional Bowl games would see a drop in revenue generated. 

No. It's too many.

Yay. Another opportunity to give my schedule-realignment snowflake. It's so pretty, just like all the other snowflakes.

I don't like (except for my own personal appetite) football starting in August. Too hot and too little practice, so there are some injury concerns there. And, I'd like for athlete-students to begin the transition into the fall semester before the games start...

2 game non-con schedule; 1 real and 1 cupcake (or mid-level, or top level if the AD has the stones, or service academy if the AD has lost his marbles)

8 game conf schedule (division heavy, w/1 maybe 2 crossovers)

4-8 team conference playoffs (2-3 games)

11 team national tourney w/p5 champs getting a bye, and 6 others in one-game wildcards to fill the other three spots.

A conference champ that goes to the final would end up playing 15-16 games. A wildcard in the final would play 16-17.

A bunch of the "bowls" could reorganize themselves into a sub-tournament (a la NIT) for 32 of the have-nots. That makes as many as 15 games and possible tournament championship for a team that fails to make its conference playoffs, and probably a max of 17 for a team that gets to its conf final but still misses out on the national wildcard.

Hope not. Cut the regular season to 11 games and have a 16 team playoff if you don’t make the playoff and have a winning record still have bowl games in place to give teams a reward and 12th game to end season 

50-50

Hopefully no chances. 

We don't need 13 regular season games.  We need to go back to smaller conferences so we don't have these instances where we play certain teams only once every 5 years. 

If this makes me a "get off my lawn," person, so be it. 

You could have an expanded playoff and a minimum 12 game season for everyone. Have everyone with a defined 11 game schedule, and then those who make the playoffs (say16 teams) would continue in playoff mode. All other FBS teams could have a pre-set scheduling of games/locations based on their ranking or conference standing as their 12th and final game. For example, it could be predetermined that the 7th place B1G team plays the 5th place Big XII team, or something like that. That way, no one loses 12 game revenue, you could still have bowl games afterward for those eligible, and the rest of us get to see an expanded playoff. Of course, there would have to be some modificaitons, as the number of teams per conference making the playoffs would not be known until the end, but I'm sure smarter people that I could work around that.

I can't see it happening but then again, what do I know? I'm just some guy from the internet.

I hope they go less regular season and more playoff.

The NCAA should grow a backbone and takeover the conference organization. Force teams into 16 eight-team divisions, and tie two of those divisions together. I.e. B1G West and B1G East.

You play your 7 division teams every year. You play 4 of your intra-conference teams every year, for an 11 game schedule. All division champions go to the playoff, with division record being the decider, overall record being the first tie breaker, and CoFoPoff rating being the last tie breaker. In a 4-year span you play every team on the other side of your conference in a home and home series. The only time you play out of conference teams is during the playoff and bowl games.

I doubt it will happen due to the eventual need to add to the playoff format.  However, I'd be shocked if there was a reduction because the other 130 teams that don't make the playoff aren't going to want to lose revenue.  Everyone has their own pros and cons about why they want certain things but we all know that $ is the driver of whatever will be done.

I hope they don't keep adding games. I love football but it is brutal.
