Championship Series, this year with simulations, results and box scores from

Why is the NCAA basketball tournament so popular? It's
because the little guy has a shot to show what it can do against the big
boys. College football should give credit to the conference
champions, while allowing the top teams to still be in the
mix.
The idea is to take the eleven conference winners and
five at large teams and put them in a playoff to settle this thing on the
field. Use the BCS formula and take the conference champions out, then just
go down the list and take the next five eligible teams with with one
caveat, no conference may have more than two representatives. There's no whining. If you
can't win your conference title, you can't say you deserve to have
a shot at the national championship. Therefore, the regular season
is still meaningful, and it might even encourage better
non-conference games.
The seeds are
