The travel issue is a joke.
That's Montana... how many fans is very well? 10000? And ho far do they go? I'm not sure anyone can go to 3 playoff games spread across the country with the ticket prices that thse bowl games cost.

As transplant said it could be done if the games are every other week but then you might lose some momentum. We always bitch about that bye week before the Super Bowl.

You know what will end up happening, there will be a playoff and then we'll have a Utah/BYU final and nobody will watch. (Like Phillies/Rays)
