Oh but it is. Having a playoff system for the top 8 teams wouldn't affect any of the fans of the teams from smaller schools. They would still get their bowl games. Who it would appease is precisely the people who have a problem now fans of the big boys who have a shot at the NC every year. The Floridas, UTs, OUs, USCs, LSUs, OSUs, etc... For those teams the NC is the end all be all. And if you don't think getting to the playoffs would be a huge boon for a team like Utah you are fooling yourself. It would be even bigger than the effect then March Madness had on schools like Gonzaga.
