I think we would, at least with programs like ours. And, I think many other bigger programs (Michigan, USC, Notre Dame--if they ever get rid of Jabba the Weis, Oregon, Florida, etc.) would travel huge to each game in a playoff.
If the 16-team system played the first and quarterfinal rounds at the higher seed's home field, those would be all but guaranteed sellouts. The semi-final and title games--even at neutral sites--would also be locks for sellouts due to the magnitude of those games, and likely the teams playing therein.
