I see your point there, the idea was to assure the once in a generations Cinderella team had a shot at it too; at least I think that was part of the original idea.
If you include the top 8 conference champs, that means that over the years the MWC, MAC, CUSA and even Sun Belt champions would all likely get bids. There are 11 conferences in the FBS, the three lowest get left out, but those would not likely be the same year in and year out.
That's all the Cinderella you need. After all, when was the last time a 16 seed won the NCAA in basketball? 8 seed?

I think there are only 10 conferences now, but stopping at 8 champs, means a 7-5 Sun Belt champ likely doesn't make it. And allows for times like LSU in 06 and Bama in 11. Not conference champs, but possibly the best.
