I think the system should be 8 teams, with the requirement that you have to win your conference or be an independent with a higher BCS ranking than a conference champ who would otherwise get into the playoffs. That would preserve the regular season greatness in games like Auburn/Alabama this year where so much was on the line. It would also give us a playoff with Stanford, Michigan State, Baylor, Auburn, FSU, UCF, and Fresno State. It would be perfect.
