It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

That would be one argument. However, DII has a 24 team format, DIII has a 32 team format. DIAA is going >16 for the first time, so we'll see.
I have followed all divisions for years and in some years the first round games are very competitive, in others, not so much. Last year half of the first round games in DII were settled by < 3pts, two went into OT. In DIII only 1/16 first round games was decided by <3 pts and only 3/16 were decided by <7 pts, so at that level it was, perhaps, a bit "watered down"
I think 20 teams is perfect for the playoffs. Anymore than that you can say making the first round isnt even the greatest of accomplishments. I want it to be worth something, instead of all this expanding crap
They are just expanding it, and will expand it even more to a total of 24 - 32 teams IMO, to make room for the non-BCS FBS programs that will be dropping like flies down to FCS in the coming years. Ultimately we will end up with BCS, FCS, DII, DIII. At least that is my conspiracy theory.
