I really liked the Pod idea that was floated a year or two ago.
4 Conferences of 16 Teams
4 Divisions within each conference
Permanent home and home with 3 teams in your division plus 1 other rival in each other division of your conference (6 games)
Rotate 3 games between the 3 other divisions (3 games)
At least 1 OOC game against a P4 conference team (1 game)
At least 1 OOC game against a NP4 D1 team (1 game)
FCS game (1st or 2nd week of the season)
For the OOC game against a P4 conference team it would be fun to do it like the NFL where the Number 1 teams play each other all the way down to the number 16 teams play each other. Go off previous years rankings. Similar to the Big 12 SEC challenge in Bball.

I like that system, too, but I think it is too hard on programs from strong regions, like the South. Since the playoff system is basically just the 16 teams who won each pod, then strong programs from weaker regions get a really big advantage.
