The plus one as I understand it, and support it, wouldn't be a semi finals type thing, it would basically just be another game following the bowls. Teams would go to the BCS bowls as they do now (maybe replace the NC game with the Cotton Bowl so there are still 5 big games) and then the top two would be selected.
I like it because it allows teams to be judged based on a recent game against a top level opponent in addition to their regular season performances. It's not perfect, but if the goal is to find the best team in the country I think it accomplishes that without doing away with the importance of the regular season.
