the playoffs expanded to 16 teams and the best 16 regardless of affiliation got in. Use the bowl system as is with top eight bowls getting a "first round" game and the remaining bowls as a reward for other teams who came close but no cigar. As far as extra game weeks go. Assuming that the 16 chosen teams would have had a game 13 in today's bowl configuration, then the eight winners would have a game 14 (four regional games at major sites). Would be down to final four for game 15 (again at another regional site) and then final two at a game hyped as the college Super Bowl. The money stream would be enormous and the cut would go to all NCAA schools, conferences and the individual schools. That would unite things again and also negate the ridiculous move to super conferences which in the end will defeat the purpose of having a conference in the first place. In fact, it could mean a move back to more logical regional conferenes. There was a time in college basketball when the NIT was the post season tournament and then came the NCAA which evolved into the March Madness money machine. Hard to believe that the college Presidents are leaving a huge pile of money on the table.
