If the conference championships were to tie into the playoffs like they should, I'm all for em.
If not, they're pointless except to give an undefeated team one last chance to lose and miss the playoffs.
It's ridiculously stupid they don't have 5 playoff spots for the five champs plus 3 at large. That way you bring in Notre Dame/BYU, another top ten power five school and then one mid major.
