You're kidding, right? Liberty, Holiday, or Insight.com Bowls? what about the Citrus or Cotton? Ever hear of those bowl games?
As for the playoff, my system would be either 8 or 16 teams, most likely 8. It would use the higher tier bowls, rotated, as its playing sites and would not kill the lesser bowl games.
It would work (it does in the other divisions of college football) and shouldn't cost class time to a great degree.
How to pick the teams? That I'm not sure of, but the 6 conference champions with at large invites somehow would have to be in there.
There'll always be debate, even with a system such as this as long as you have the Notre Dames getting bids over teams more deserving, such as Oregon merely b/c of prestige and geographical placement in the country.
Oregon got the BCS poke in the arse this year. Next year, it'll be someone else.
