Hate to say it but the Big East...

I would love to have a playoff with a bracket and then a final game between the two finalists. I think that they have been debating a final playoff game which it should happen. There is a problem with the BCS at least every other year. This year looks to be no different. I am happy for Rutgers and everything but I mean the Big East is a joke to me, they are horrible. I would have felt bad for that kicker if there would have been no offsides penalty on that play and then they lost, that guy would have commited suicide I think.

A 6 team, three round playoff system is doable right now. The only potential problem I see is the scheduling of 'traditional' matchups (SEC winner plays suger, PAC-10 winner plays in Rose, etc.) If you wanted to preserve that would have to have some type of variable scheduling depending on who ended up where. I'm not sure if thats possible. Actually another problem is that you would either have to ditch major conference winners, or totally exclude at-large bids like ND or the mid-majors, and they aren't going to like that.

An 8 team playoff with 6 major conference winners + 2 at-large (to please ND and the mid-majors) would make more sense, but it would take 7 total 'bowls' and 2 teams away from the minor bowls. OTOH, you could still preserve the traditional bowl matchups, guarantee that every major conference winner plays, and satisfy both ND and the mid-majors.
