So impossible every other division of college football has been doing it for decades

1AA and D1A are not really comparable

like i said, you'd have to incorporate a safety valve of including every conference, which is going full retard like CBB

Not really. You could require a team to be ranked in order to qualify.

Go look up I-AA's playoffs sometime. Those started out with just four teams. Northern Arizona, SC State, Western Kentucky, and Grambling were all conference champions who didn't get in. Just a couple of years ago, neither of the Big South's co-champions (Liberty and Stony Brook) went to the playoffs.

You can have a safety valve for the safety valve by setting minimum standards. Then you don't get the WAC or Sun Belt champion.

It is really not hard at all. 11 team playoff only conference champions make it(CUSA and MWC merge to make only 10 conference + you make all the indys schedule each other highest ranked team makes it in).

Play in game between 2 lowest ranked teams then a basic 10 team playoff. play in winner and next 3 lowest ranked teams play and form the 8 team playoff.

All games until semi finals are played at higher seed's homefield

Last 3 games(semi finals and championship are nuetral games at rotating Fiesta Orange Sugar and Rose)

And all ratings are done with a basic unbiased formula. win % + .5(opps win%) add a win to all teams played on the road. Have some kind of committee that decides what is neutral and what is on the road. For example Boise playing Virginia Tech in DC counts as a road game for Boise

hope that makes sense
