I'd love to see the 10 conferences divided into 2 separate divisions of 5, each with a conference championship game. I know it's a dream, but I think it'd be great for college football. The 5 conference champs would get an automatic bid to the playoffs with 3 at-larges. That would make an 8-team playoff in each division. I bumped some teams "down" to Division-B (Colorado, Duke, Wake Forest, Purdue, Indiana, Kentucky). I'd have 60 teams in D-A and 68 in D-B. Again, I know it would take an act of God, but it sure would be nice. I just don't understand the resistance. Every sport under the sun has a playoff structure...except when it comes to major college football. It's baffled me for years. I know it's not about money.
