If playoff you would still want to be the higher seed so you wouldn't rest your players. Also most college level playoffs involve possible home games as people wouldn't want to travel half way across the country for a first round playoff game. So you would be playing for home field as well so the games would still have meaning.

No doubt, but it wouldn't be the same. College has an entirely different feel to it than the NFL...for several reasons.
The all or nothing nature of competition is one of those reasons. A playoff system would mimic what we have going on in the SEC, but on crack. The West has four good teams with 5 losses among them, and the East has 1 decent team, and one mediocre team (with 6 losses between them) followed by complete shite.
But SC has a better chance of making the Sugar Bowl than LSU.
