Most of the arguments about those three "wild card" spots would be solved with a "No Two Teams From The Same Conference" rule. Not never ever, no matter whose team or which conference, not singling anybody out here.

Those other three are for non-"power five" and/or independents who didn't otherwise wouldn't make the top five so that they can have a fair chance too.

Of course, people would still find something to complain about... but if I were Emperor... An eight team playoff, with aforementioned rule. Bowl games might be the first round, or they might be the semifinals.

I'd make that a Saturday proclamation, right after I'd spent a week solving certain other problems...
