If A Playoff, What's Your Format?

Submitted by gajensen on

If the BCS bowl system were to be scrapped and a playoff implemented to determine the national champion, how would you go about it?

Would it take two weeks and feature the top four teams?  1v4 and 2v3?
Three weeks and top six teams?  1 and 2 with bye, 3v6 and 4v5, and so on?
Three weeks and top eight teams?

Would you want the BCS ranking system to stay in place to determine the seeds regardless of conference, or would you rather favor conference champions (and then perhaps at-larges)?
