I believe that the 16 team model that I
posted about before would be as close as we could get. All 11 FBS conference champions plus five at-large bids for the top 5 non-conference champions. Every single team from every conference gets a chance and it's a whopping 4 extra games for any given team (assuming they get to the championship game).
I'm starting to think that it's not really the extra games that the presidents, conference commissioners, and athletic directors are really concerned about. I'm more inclined to believe that the friction against a true full blown playoff is due to the fact that it would make all other bowl games plummet in popularity and decrease the revenues for teams that don't make it into the 16 team playoff.
