4 has already hurt it.
I think it's "hurt" it in the sense that teams no longer GAF about bowl games, which does suck to see as a fan but ultimatley they don't really MATTER much in the grand scheme of things.
But yes I agree 8 will be disastrous. It's pointless and unncessary, and I give it about 3-4 years before teams finish 9th start crying about them being left out and talks to expand start up again.

FCS has a 16 team playoff, it is fun.
If the playoff made bowl games meaningless, fine. The solution to that problem isn’t going back to a worse criteria for determining the championship, it’s adding more meaningful games (which are playoff games)
Will this result in some fluke titles? Maybe occasionally. That’s not a new problem though, and I’d rather the fluke title be because you beat 3-4 really great teams in a row than the “had easy schedule and everybody else crapped the bed” flukes of the past
