Head coaches in the Football Bowl Subdivision continue to overwhelmingly support the current postseason bowl system over a playoff according to results of the AFCA’s recently completed FBS Head Coaches Survey.
There was also strong support for the current BCS selection process and use of the AFCA’s Coaches Trophy as the BCS Championship Trophy.
• Ninety-three percent of the 117 FBS head coaches who responded to the survey prefer the traditional bowl system over a playoff.
• Eighty-five percent are in favor of the current BCS team selection process.
• Thirty percent of the coaches favor some modifications to the BCS system. Of that group, 50 percent prefer the “plus one” model that would result in the addition of a fifth BCS bowl game.
• Ninety-five percent of the coaches are in favor of the AFCA Coaches’ Trophy continuing to serve as the BCS National Championship Trophy.
The survey was sent to all FBS head coaches following the AFCA Convention in January.
