So, jumping over the promised four-team college football playoff format that goes into effect after the 2014 season, I read this article here and said, "YES"!!! Drop the 4 non-conference games and add one extra week, this will allow for a regular 8 conference game season, plus the conference championship game, the bowl game, and a 64-team playoff. Or make the bowl games the start of the playoffs, and this would leave the extra week off of the schedule. There are 35 bowl games right now, so 70 teams already get to play. Thus, drop 3 bowls, or make them non-playoff bowls, and you have your 64-team playoff.
