The further you expand it, the less meaningful the regular season becomes.
We have teams making the playoff that ARE NOT WINNING THEIR CONFERENCE! How is that a meaningful regular season if a team can make the playoff simply because of the conference they play in and because voters THINK they are one of the best 4 teams? How can you be one of the best 4 out of 130+ teams if you aren't even the best in your conference?
Let's say LSU beats Alabama in 4 weeks. Alabama will most likely end the season at 11-1, with their best win against Aggie or Aubie. Do they deserve to be in the playoff at that point? Hell no! Even if they end the season at #4, they don't deserve to be in.

Some conferences deserve 2 teams in the playoffs. The SEC has 3 or 4 teams that are better than any pac12 team. Clemson doesn't play a single team that will end up ranked. Use LSU as an example...if they beat 3 top 10 teams and lose one to the number 1 team in the country by 1 point, they won't be in conference title game. They might be the 2nd best team in the country. The playoffs are here for the best 4 teams, not conference champions
