This is the letter University of Georgia President Michael Adams planned to present to NCAA President Myles Brand. It was obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in advance:
"For some twenty years, I have opposed a football playoff system, largely for academic reasons. We at the University of Georgia have one of the few institutions in the country with both a top-20 public academic program and a top-20 athletic program, and I want to keep it that way. For that reason, I remain concerned about any move to lengthen the football season into a second semester. I believe the season already is too long and demands too much of athletes and the universities that serve them.
