There's a problem with that..you had 4 undefeated teams this year, so you figure that you could have a 4 team playoff..two rounds, right?..OK..what would have happened had Cal managed to win their last game?

I don't think you would have ended up with 4 undefeated teams. I like the idea of Conference Champions playing in their traditional bowl games. Re. Big 10 vs Pac 10 in the Rose.

There are 12 conferences, 6 bowl game winners. That, and add with two wild card teams gives you a 3 game playoff series. Could be done with within a 12 game season if the OC gimmie games are dropped from the schedules.

The trick will be incorporating the bowl games so that they are BIG rivalry games...Big 12 vs SEC in the Cotton Bowl for instance. If done right this could be a huge revenue machine. However, it might also require some changes to the conferences.
