Maybe onlly conference champions get home field advantage in the first round? It would make the regular season mean something and follows a proven model in the NFL (division champions). As long as all tickets are sold out at the hosting team stadium then all is fine. In fact, maybe that is a guaranteed requirement by all participating universities and conferences. I cannot imagine any FBS school not being able to sell all of its tickets to a college football playoff game. The hard part for me is how the major bowls should be involved. When four teams are left, there are three games remaining. Hard to share three games when the Orange, Sugar, Fiesta, Rose and Cotton (Cowboys Stadium) all make compelling cases to participate.
