If UCF won out, they would have beaten Penn State, Clemson, Alabama and then likely UGA.
Would never happen, especially not all 4 four in a row.

And if you didn't you win, then you were fodder for a team like Clemson. A reward for being the number one overall seed.
Fodder? More like Clemson plays a scrappy UCF team in a game it would never have to play otherwise in the current 4 team format. It's literally just adding games for the sake of adding games. Which is fine if your only goal is to make money, but it's going to have some serious consequences on the back end.
For example, in this proposed 12 team bracket, you've just taken bowl opportunities away from 8 teams so 4 teams can play in/win 2 bowls and 2 teams can play in/win 3 bowl and 1 team can have all that plus the national title.
And I'll tell you right now, the 8 teams that screwed out of those 8 bowl slots are going to be G5 teams with smaller fanbases and brand name appeal

The goal in this system is to make every single game matter. Every bowl game. Every out of conference game. Real tangible value to playoff standing and how difficult your draw will be if you're good enough to make it.
