Fotiu, if Hawaii is in the top 12, they automatically get a spot in the BCS, and it would be the Sugar ... those are the rules.

No, I have never lived in a ACC market, and I don't doubt what you say is true ... for very select and limited markets, but NOT for the majority of the country.

And the KU/Miss game would mean absolutely squat if there was a 8 team playoff, both would get in, same with OSU vs Michigan last year, and same with every single game in the first 2/3rds of the season.

Further in a playoff the winner of KU/Mizzou would still be 4 wins away ... in this format they are 2 wins away.

The numbers don't lie, NCCA Football draws massive numbers ... and those numbers jumped the day the BCS was structured. It's infinately more popular than college basketball, and the importance of the regular season is the number 1 reason why.
