The expansion is about making sure everyone who deserves a shot gets in and that its not decided in a smoke filled room. Its not about weeding out teams. Reality is that its pretty rare that #8 teams would win it, so its not a big deal if you have a #18 Big 10 champ in place of them. And maybe that #18 Big 10 champ found their QB after starting off 1-4. They won something on the field, not just in a board room.

C’mon bullet. The point of expansion is to make more money. The question is what system maximizes that goal for the P5. Which is why I Agree with you that auto bids are the way to go. It’s not like the committee goes away completely as they will still choose the wild card teams.

The point of expansion will always be money and power. P5 will try to keep as much as they can.

The narrative that the playoff has killed interest in the rest of the bowls is funny.

Bowls have always been exhibitions and the reason interest is dying is due to the sheer number of them. Back in the 90s you had about 20 bowls. Were close to 40 now for any normal year. So the BCS didnt hurt interest in bowls either? Maybe because there werent so many 6-6 and 7-5 teams playing in them.

Maybe teams need to drop 1-2 games against FCS so that the field can be expanded. That way kids can play 4-5 weeks of games that actually mean something.
