NFL and MLB are businesses with 30 or 32 owners. They collectively agreed to expand their playoffs not because there is something magical about playoffs, but because that expansion resulted in each of those owners making a lot more money, including TV paying them a helluva lot more money for expanded playoffs.

College football is not a collective business co-owned by every school that chooses to field a football team. CFB is an almost random group of schools that have widely varying football operations, don't have common economic interests, and are not partners with each other.
