How do we replace the BCS and make a CFB playoff system equitable and work at the same time?

Ridiculous. Georgia is better than either team that is in the SEC championship and better than any team in the ACC. They had a young line that lost two early games, and now they are ready to do damage in a play-off that isn't happening.

Just take the top 8 ranked teams and forget conference championships. All championships will do is penalize the SEC and reward the weak conferences.

Oh, come on. For conference champions to work, you have to have some of those conferences be better than IAA. There are 6 or 7 SEC teams that would put a hurting to the current top 3 BCS teams and would easily beat the champions of all the other conferences. The SEC killed itself again this year.

Maybe the SEC should be broken up, one or two teams put into each other of the other conferences and then see who the conference champions would be!

The #1 and #2 team from each conference (or division winers in certain conferences) with a couple of wild cards for any Div-1 tem (independents or a #3 division seed with a good record) 12 conferences get you to 24 teams + 8 wiled card bids gets most of the top 30 in. 32 teams is five rounds of the playoffs with each game being a bowl game. The ‘BCS’ bowls can have the top spots. 5 weeks starting thanks giving day weekend puts the national championship on new years day..

This is suprising to see considering that the SEC is the strongest of the conferences in college football.

Maybe we should just automatically declare the SEC league champ the NCAA Champ and do away with all this other BCS BS?

The best playoff scenario is a 16 team bracket that takes the 8 conference champs and 8 at-large teams(the at-large teams are there to keep the so-called BCS schools happy)
The 8 at-large teams get in based on their Sagarin Rankings, this will keep the idot East Coast biased writers out of it. Seed the brackets using the same rankings. This is the only equitable way to do it.
