Something needs to be done after the garbage first round of playoffs.

No automatic bye for conference champions seems good.

This article stops short of saying the Big12 and ACC should only get one team in, but I'd support that until proven they aren't week conferences.

Strength of schedule needs to be a bigger factor, an 11-1 Indiana never deserved a spot. My ideal default would be 6 SEC, 3 Big10, and the other automatic qualifiers.

I'm not even an SEC fan, I just recognize there's a very real difference in depth there vs the Big10. OSU is the second best Big10 team, it's not surprising they can beat an SEC team (especially after that embarrassing loss to Michigan). I doubt Penn State or Indiana could have. Maybe the cold really is a major factor, but I think the bigger issue is teams being inflated by soft schedules.
