I disagree. The bowl "system" has been money driven for its whole history. It's money and money alone that has perpetuated the asinine major college football post season.
Regrettably, that has foisted upon the public a perception that major college football is somehow different from other divisions, even the pros. Subsequently, we have missed out on glorious seasons followed by even better playoffs that would have seen some truly historic programs turn away all comers and others that suffered monumental upsets to teams that got stronger as the season went on.
You can't disagree though, it WAS a system that everyone agreed to play under (multiple times at that). You might not like it but facts are facts.

I can disagree because the everyone to whom you refer is not documented anywhere and because the powers of major college football have always been money-driven corporations who have dictated to the sport for decades. With the inception of the 4-team playoff, the first signs of rebellion appeared against silly systems that "pick the best 2 teams" (which has always been up for debate) to play for the mythical championship.
