I love that idea but one potential problem

With there still being at-large spots available outside the 2 or 3 AQs per conference, any additional game between two conference opponents results in an additional loss for a conference team, further decreasing that league’s chances of getting one of the at-large spots.

Isn’t it still the top ranked Conferences getting the bye? Did I miss

SEC and B1G want the two byes. At least for one of the latest proposals.
Maroon Baboon • 03/03/24 10:10 PM ET
Really two byes, sounds like bye bye to me. 👋👋
Stech • 03/03/24 10:15 PM ET
The committees that pick these things are in the tank for the SEC and B1G
Maroon Baboon • 03/03/24 10:19 PM ET
They want all the money, you make a ridiculous offer, they say no, then
Stech • 03/03/24 10:33 PM ET

If I am the ACC or BIG12 I take the offer of 2 AQ's and run to the bank

I wonder if we could have two "championship" games then?

Yormark's and Phillip's 40 times will rival some of the WR combine times
HouClone • 03/03/24 04:00 PM ET
Same here. I have preferred the AQ for 5 top conference champs
