8 is way too many.

For starters, if after 12 regular season games plus Championship weekend you're still ranked 8th, chances are good you don't deserve a spot at the title because you probably have 2 losses.

Next, the whole "5 P5 champs and 3 at larges" is ridiculous because it's entirely possible upsets happen championship weekend. I mean, if VT were to stun clemson this weekend do they REALLY deserve a shot at a national title? Frick no they don't, not even remotely close.

4 is fine.

I got away from my main point that "if" we expanded I would want 8 not 6. I don't have an issue with 4 at the moment. I think 6 causes more issues than 8 and I'm not really happy with a bye system. 8 would just be a better solution for the people that believe conference champs deserve automatic bids but I'm not in agreement with those people.
