Would’ve worked great for Ohio State in 2007
Would’ve won the ‘ship without ever having had to play that absurd LSU team with the all American safeties and the all timer DL

Oh, I know. Plus, do you want to know why Tennessee, in your scenario, is 11 and not 12? It's because #5 is Wisconsin, and #6 is Texas. They won't make Tennessee go play in Wisconsin in December - Tennessee will have to go play Texas. #12 is Penn State - they'll go play at Wisconsin.
People are praising this situation, saying that SEC will have to play in the north for the first round. And, yes, they will have to play some games in the north. But I predict some situations like this, where a team inexplicably gets ranked up or down to create fewer southern teams playing in the north. Or the southern teams that do play in the north are the G5 teams, or other teams that are not "media darlings".

Why not? First round games could start November 1, and we’d have a champion by New Years. I‘d make it 128 to avoid any play in games. Plus it would give Kirk Herbstreit a chance to interview the two teams left out about how it feels to be slighted by the selection committee.

There would be 5 teams left out in that scheme, not 2
But all this absurdity for the purpose of being absurd does make a good point
There are an absurd number of teams in the top division
Fewer than half of them belong in the top division
Time for the Power 2 to do what should’ve been done long ago. Start winnowing the herd

How do you pit recruiting vs championships? The landscape of college ball is ever changing through the near future. No wonder coaches are wanting out.

Seeding, matchups - none of that shit matters. E-SECSECSEC-PN is still calling the shots. They clearly meddled this year in the CFP selection process and no one gave two shits.

I would prefer the first three rounds be played on campus, and only have the championship at a neutral site.

I don't know what "winnowing" means, but I'm sure I agree with you.
Big 2 need to get together and say, "We're going to play our champion against your champion." No one needs to call it the national champion. That way, all the left-outs can't say that it isn't fair that they have no chance to be in the national championship game. But it will be the national championship game, and all of the left-outs will stab their own mothers in the backs for a chance to be in one of those two conferences. And those conferences will be able to admit whomever they want.
The two conferences will get together to figure out certain things to keep things fair between conferences - number of games in a schedule, number of scholarships allowed, maybe if NIL is ever regulated... transfer rules... everything.
Figure out your conference champion however you want. We'll figure out our conference champion. We'll meet you in January in a neutral site.

I 100% would love this, but you know they would fudge the rankings to not put semis in the North as much as possible. This is the only thing I want CFB to do like the NFL.
Fuck playing in Orlando, Bahamas, Atlanta, Dallas, or any other bowl location until it is for the natty. Then they better be in Atlanta, Dallas, L.A., Indy, etc. on a rotation.
