BCS..or 12 Team NCAAF Playoff?!??

I know I have talked about 8 and 10 team playoffs but the most realistic playoff will end up being a 12 team playoff.  Simple design 11 total "BCS" bowls.

I figured I needed to comment about the situation after the National Championship game.  The system did not do its job.  Yes Auburn was the best team but until there is a playoff a "true" champion will not be crowned. There is still another undefeated college football team that didn't get a chance to prove if they are a better team than Auburn.  A +1 system is nothing more than a remedy to the problem.  TCU received first place votes in both the AP and USA today polls.  TCU director of athletics said this,

         "We're going to celebrate the fact that we won the Rose Bowl. But until they get a system that is                   going to be absolutely perfect so they can figure out a way to determine those things, we need to celebrate the system we currently have right now. I'm not going to go through my time with an asterisk: could have, should have, but...No. We're Rose Bowl champions."

A playoff means more money, exposure, helps NFL with scouting [elite talent vs elite talent], and is great for sports fanatics. I will post later this week about the official breakdown and what it should end up being........winner take ALL [but not all] $20 million for the school that wins the National Championship.
