I thought you were referring to losing money because of doing away with the bowl system all together. That's what i was saying. I know they will NEVER give up the 12 game format.

I don’t see them doing away that either. There’s a reason we have more bowl games now compared to a few decades ago. The playoffs will only consistently make money for a handful of teams. The other teams (like 90% of FBS) are going to want that bowl bid possibility because that’s not going to be them.

They could do a covid-esque format.

I.e. teams have 11 scheduled games. For teams that make a conference title, that’s their 12th game. The other teams have to play another team from the opposite division of their conference for their 12th game.
