It is clear we are heading to an 8 game playoff. In that format there are enough slots available so that determining a clear conference champion is not needed. The conference championship game is often a rematch, and it adds an extra game that should simply be part of the playoff against a team from a different conference.
The ideal model is already there for everyone to see in the FCS playoffs. We just need to eliminate the stupid bowls that are from another era and the conference championship games that are part of the BCS era. As a supporter of a team that competed in the playoffs, a 16 team playoff is much more exciting than the FBS system. No telling how much $$$$ it would generate.
12 game regular season
No conference championship game
16 team playoff
Make it happen.
