I hear proposals like that and think the person saying it must be joking.
There's no advantage to that even if the NCAA were to increase the number of regular season games allowed from 12 to 13. You'd lose every single interesting out of conference game - games like Florida/FSU, USC/Clemson, UGA/Ga Tech that are part of college footballs rivalries.
You'd also lose more money since you'd lose home gate revenues and you'd end up with fewer bowl eligible teams - losing the extra practices between regular season and bowl season. IMO a 13 game round robin offers no real advantage when it comes to declaring a conference champ anyway since there would inevitably be more two, three, or even four or more way ties for the championship.
