If we switch to a playoff system there will still be complaining about the 9th ranked team in an 8 team playoff
I think that's doubtful, but even if we did, it's MUCH better than excluding a really good (and potentially undefeated) #3 team. IMHO, if you're not in the top 4 or 5 after conference title week, you're probably not good enough to play for the NC, which is why we should have a plus one.
The regular season loses nothing if we go with a plus one format. We still have 12 games, conference titles and the regular bowls. Each year we would just rotate the 1v4 and 2v3 matchups during bowl season between the Fiesta, Orange, Sugar and Rose. The winner plays for the NC on a neutral playing field. Done.
I would rather have an 8 game playoff, but this is definitely an improvement over the "system" (using the term lightly) we have today.

All bullshite aside, a +1 would be terrible for college football. What would it have done this year? Failed, just like the BCS. Anyone who watched any of the Rose Bowl should see a +1 would not be a good idea. Too much influece from media dumbasses and others with an agenda. Did you hear Pussburger & frickstriet during the Rose Bowl pimping USC to play the winner of the BCS championship? Why USC? frick that shite. I'm telling you, a +1 isn't a good idea.
