it should've always been P5 conference winners with 3 at large. if it were done today:



1 - Bama/FL winner
2 - ND/Clem winner
3 - OSU/NW winner
4 - USC/Oregon winner
5 - OU/ISU winner
6 - Coastal Car.
7 - Cincy
8 - BYU


get rid of rankings because we all know they're subjective and bias based on this weeks rankings. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

No this is stupid because Bama losing a close game to Florida still deserves an at-large over Coastal frickin' Carolina.

Period.

You want to reward conference champs and then get the 3 best remaining teams -

Use what I wrote above:

- 5 P5 conference champs
- 3 at-larges chosen by BCS
- Ranked 1-8 by BCS
- Top 4 get home games on NYE and NYD
- Remaining 4 play in the rotating bowl system we have now for the CFP

It would put A&M and Notre Dame in if they lost to Clemson. I'd have to look at others in the BCS rankings to put it all together but something like:

1. Bama
2. Ohio State
3. Clemson
4. A&M
5. Notre Dame
6. Cincinnati
7. Indiana
8. Georgia

Bama gets blown out by Muffin, still a better team than UF.

The problem is that the losers of 3/5 of the P5 CCGs would make it every year over the G5 and non-ND independent schools. So, the clamoring G5 would continue to clamor.

The real problem is that FBS is too big. They need to split and cap at between 64-80 schools. The G5 programs, save a few of the more regularly competitive programs and independents, return to FCS or make a seperate division of football.

Then, the "P5s conf champs, plus 3 at large" makes sense and accounts for conference strength and/or a single loss.
