I haven't heard much talk about what I think is a big plus from this extended playoff season, and that is the extra time the team is getting.

When our season ended in 2012 because of the suspended post season I remember Meyer telling the media how the team is missing out on those 15 days of extra practice because the season ended at the end of November. 

Fast forward to now, it's basically almost the middle of January by the time the NC Game is played and the team is still together working. Before we know it it is going to be winter conditioning again and then Spring practice. 

This team is already close, think about how good we are going to be come Fall! Oh and they are not in class right now either, even more time!

Now, could this extra time be bad for their bodies, sure maybe but this extra time together I think a lot of coaches would welcome. 

Done rambling lol
