“I believe this can solve the problem and still keep the current system in tact.”
The current system is the problem. It needs to be blown up. What is needed is a 16 team playoff that takes the Champ from all 11 conferences and 5 at large teams. The at large would be the 5 highest ranked teams remaining. You seed the tourney using the Sargin rankings at the end of the season. This is the only way you get a true champion.
Let me ask you something, who cares about college basketball until the NCAA Tournament?
In essence in College Football there is an elimination game each and every week. That’s part of what makes it great. We just saw Mizzou and Michigan State get eliminated this past weekend.
