This sounds like a terrible idea. Anytime a conference champion got bumped for anyone else, there would be legitimate cries of foul play. How could you as a conference justify sending one team, and not choosing your league's champion? And you know a conference would probably do that at some point under your scenario.

Yep. My point was that any conference champion of "legitimate" conferences in the pool should be favored over, say a team that finished second in its division and didn't make the conference championship game. If that respective league feels that team's exclusion is so unjust, let them replace the conference champ in the playoffs with that team. It was sarcasm.
