My suggestion. Add 1 wildcard.
Set playoff for seeding, so the wildcard plays the lowest div winner in a best of 3.
Top team gets a buy. Winner plays the top team. Usually 2 div winners play for the champ anyway, but now the lower win div winner had to earn it.

I like this idea, and I used it before. It was fun. The problem is that OOTP has problems with tie-breakers when a wild-card winner is also tied for the division championship. That's one of the reason I switched to not having the wild-card. I'm not sure if this issue got resolved.
