But there already is a college football playoff system........
and it works quite nicely. Divisions 1-AA, 2 and 3 all use the playoff system. One of my alma mater's is the three time defending 1-AA champion - Appalachian State University in Boone, NC
People act like it's a really difficult problem to have a playoff system in I-A. But the other three divisions do it without any trouble.
The only reason the cases aren't directly comparable is because of the bowl tradition in I-A. But 80% of the bowls are utter crap, dreamed up in the last 10 years to sell lawn-care products and vacation packages in Albuquerque. It probably wouldn't be that hard to retain the oldest, most significant bowl games within a playoff bracket.
My alma mater was I-AA runner-up a couple years ago. That UMass - App State game was way more exciting than the average bowl game.
