I disagree, 8 is too many. 4 is more appropriate given the length of regular season and number of realistic contenders on an average year.

Spurrier said it best a few years ago when he was asked about a playoff. He said something about how "the girls seem to handle it fine" referencing the women's hoops tourny
He also referenced lower division NCAA football playoffs
AND, if players are about to start getting "compensation" - that negates much of the arguments against a longer season

Upvoted. The perfect initial system would have maintained the BCS rankings and put 1-4 in a playoff. OP does not address the fact that the college football playoff has drastically shrunk the number of votes needed to determine the teams that compete for a championship. Bias will be strong, and SEC fatigue is still alive and strong. The current playoff's infrastructure is not in the fans' best interests, especially the SEC's.
