These are definitely good points, but I think this person is underestimating college football fans. Attendance, IMO, would go through the roof if a playoff system was implemented. If your school received a playoff bid, said university has a LEGITIMATE shot at the National Championship. A first round game for Directional U means so much more than the 2000 Flushes Toilet Bowl. Regional seeding would also help. It's naive to think talent is equal across the board among conferences, 'cause it isn't. But, giving the Boise St.'s of the world a legitimate a shot would benefit college football in unimaginable ways. A playoff system using conference champions for the "Big" guys, National Rankings for wildcard teams, and 1 gauranteed spot for the mid majors is the only way to go. This gauranteed spot can be determined through a mini playoff in which the small schools can face off in a sort of "play in" game, similar to what occurs in NCAA Basketball.
