Perhaps the G5 champ will have to be in the top 12 or top 15 to secure a spot and if not gets routed to a NY6 consolation game against another team on the cusp of making the bracket.

I don't see stretching the football season into January for a tiny handful of teams to be a bad thing and we don't have to compromise the 12 game regular season. Theoretically, the NY6 bowls would have been played this season on Saturday Dec 29th and Tuesday Jan 1st. Monday and Tuesday night of this week would have been the semi-finals, and my preference for the National Title would be either MLK Day or the Saturday before the Pro Bowl.

I think the university presidents might disagree with you on the bolded point. And I'm not sure how ESPN would feel about placing the playoffs squarely in competition with the NFL postseason either.

If the choice is between extending the playoffs further into January or eliminating them entirely, I would much prefer the latter.
