Again, nothing piled high is still nothing. The broken part is the goal is not to determine a champion, it is to make money. That broken, and it remains so. To unbreak it you need to value the conference CG as the entry round into the playoff. All P4 champs get in with maybe the top three G5 champs getting in, plus the top independent (or maybe the top 2 G5 with the top 2 independents or at-large). Eight teams, no conference duplicates, no conference favored, regular season matters, no byes, money is what it is. Play it off.I don't know anyone who doesn't think the college post season is better now that it has ever been. And, it's not a lateral move of changing a flawed system to a newer, but equally flawed systems. The new post season is significantly better. Your position seems to be if it's not perfect, than it's 100% broke. It's OK if it's not perfect. We're not talking about Boeing's Starliner.
It cannot work when one or two conferences are allowed to game the system and reap the bulk of the financial benefit year after year. It becomes a tool to enrich those conferences to the disadvantage of the rest. That is inequity at its core, and that is broken, IMPO.
You are welcome to think as you prefer.
