RE: How I would like to see a national football tournament organized.
This idea of mine would not be mandatory of course. Any teams could opt out and have an invitational tournament of their own. They would be replaced by willing participants who want to compete for a championship in a post season football tournament.

In college athletics this has happened before. In basketball for many years the champion of the NIT was generally considered the national champion, and the Tigers were the runner-up one season losing to Bradley by one point in 1957 (I remember it well). The NCAA basketball tournament soldiered along with what became 16 conference champions and eventually its champion was universally considered the national champion. The NIT continued on but without conference champions it eventually became the consolation tournament it is today.

Football should only be so lucky.
