I can't figure out why the top conferences haven't gone to a play-off system, using the bowls as the preliminary rounds. For instance, (and I am just making up particapting bowl names, don't waste time telling me a particular bowl isn't a part of it)have the Rose, Fiesta, Orange and Sugar host the top 8 teams. All four games actually mean something instead of just the one hosting the top two. Then the next week, the Cotton and Gator host the winners, with the Holiday getting the two winners. Seven bowls get into the picture, every game is meaningful, only four teams play an extra game (and two play two more), and we have a national champion.
Nah, it's all too easy.
