Yeah, I'm all in favor of an 8-team playoff. I mentioned that earlier in the thread. I'm just saying that unless you have something ridiculous like a 24-team playoff with automatic berths for every crappy second-tier conference, you need to keep the bowl system intact.

The NCAA basketball championship used to be only 16 teams.
All playoff systems find a way to grow.

There's over 300 D1 basketball teams now and talent is spread a lot further, and with the cost of running a big time D1 football program I doubt we'll see an explosion of quality midmajor teams like we see in basketball that allowed a huge playoff to still consist of only quality teams.
