A 16 team playoff where winning the MAC or Sun Belt gives you the same standing as winning the Pac 12 or SEC...that is just not acceptable.

They wouldn't have the same standing, they would be seeded 1:16, 2:15, 3:14...8:9.

Chances are that the smaller non-Power5 would get the lowest seeds, therefore would likely lose in the first round - also giving the top teams a virtual automatic advance to the quarter-finals.

Ultimately, there is no better way to determine a champions from so many teams in so many conferences. There is NO WAY to remove bias using any kind of polling/computer/beauty pageant type system.

People who want wild-card at large bids are just scared their team won't cut the muster and want a second chance.

You know who doesn't ask for second chances?

Winners.

You have a point, my position on the At Large is that if your conference is already represented, you can not be AT LARGE, NO SECOND CHANCES

Would this not insure the smaller conferences could get in, Cinderella or whatever ?
