Then on the saturday after New Years we would have the BCS Cahmpionship game.

It still comes down to money. Your system would eliminate a lot of bowl games and therefore money. The bowl sponsors would never agree.

Here's another idea. Have a 16 team playoff system as they do in 1AA/subdivision or whatever they call it. That would be 15 games. The BCS select 15 bowls to part of the playoff system. The remaining bowls will still have their games but not as part of the playoffs. Each year rotate in one bowl that was not part of the playoff system the previous year and rotate out one. That would maintain all the bowl games and allow each bowl to be part of the playoff system and big money for several years.

Yes, whatever shall we do with all of those meaningless bowl games with half-filled stadiums?

Nope. My system would only take 4 teams out of the bowl season instead of the usual two. I disagree with the idea of having 16 teams. If that were in place this year then a Big 12 Champ. game between say Kansas and Oklahoma would mean nothing ince both teasm would be in top 16. Under my plan that game would be for a possible berth in the final four.

If the BCS is expanded I suspect that we would see the top 4 BCS teams have a final four type tournament.
