The NCAA should go to a six team, NFL style playoff system. Use the BCS ranking system to determine the top six teams. Have #1 and #2 sit out the Christmas week round and have #3 play #6 and #4 play #5. The New Years week round have #1 play the lower seeded team and #2 play the higher seeded team. One week after that have the two final winners play for the National Championship. This system will still allow for all the other bowl games to exist and only use up the four BCS bowl games and the BCS National Championship game.

How will the money be distributed?

Sounds ok, but the traveling expensives would be high with no advance notice.

see, playoffs are all fine and dandy to the people who come up with them bc they all seem to just accidentally leave out the monetary issue

won't solve much. would utah have made the 6-team cutoff? the top 5 would be pretty clear

UF
OU
UT
USC
Bama

now who gets the 6th spot?

Texas Tech
PSU
Utah

also you'd have 2, possibly 3 big12 teams and 2 SEC teams in the mix. that's a shitload of money for those conferences from the BCS. the big east and ACC would be left out of the money entirely, and the big10 may join them

How is your life affected by Florida winning it? I don't get it. Will you be more satisfied if Arizona wins the Super Bowl????

People waste WAAAAY to much energy on this. This same nonsense has given LSU fans extreme happiness twice in the past five years.

16 teams:
The 10 major conference champs plus the next 6 highest ranked teams. Money is distributed same way bowl game money is distributed.

but aren't you eliminating the bowl games that the conferences would have been getting by hosting these playoff games in those bowls? Then you're also going to have some teams getting multiple bowl checks, with 2 teams getting 4 checks. Then you've got the issue of a conference getting possibly 3-4 teams in so they could potentially get all 4 of the semifinal teams giving their conference 4 BCS checks while others are left out. No way the BCS heads ever go for something like that
