How is that any different from the system we have now?
At least the actual title is won on the field during the BCS/CFP. A team has to actually earn it.

How is that any different from how it used to be done? Back in the day, if you lost a game you were screwed unless something crazy happened to put you back in the running. The same scenario still plays out in the present day. If you went undefeated, there was a good chance that you were going home with either an AP or UPI national championship trophy. The same thing still applies today.
We complain about subjective rankings all the time on this board while thinking the championship is won "on the field" when subjective #1 and subjective #2 meet in a post-season bowl game. Show me the logic.
