Proposed Playoff Format

Below is my desired regular season and playoff format for college football including my proposed objective ranking system.

1-All FBS teams play 12 regular season games versus FBS competition only including six home games and six away games. No conference championship games, exempted games, or FCS games.

2-FBS teams are ranked most to least:
a. Power Points (Games Won Opponents’ Wins - Games Lost Opponents’ Losses)
b. Net Wins ( Wins - Losses)
c. Schedule Strength (Opponents’ Power Points)
d. Net Points (Points For - Points Against)

3-16 teams qualify for the playoffs (11 conference champions plus five wildcards).

4-Each conference’s automatic berth is awarded to the team with the best conference record. If there is a tie, the highest ranked team in the national standings per the rules described above is awarded the automatic berth.

5-The top five teams in the national standings that do not win their conference’s automatic berth are awarded the five wildcard berths.

6-The 16 playoff qualifiers are seeded highest to lowest national standing.

7-First round pairings are 1-16, 2-15, 3-14, 4-13, 5-12, 6-11, 7-10, and 8-9. Subsequent round pairings match the highest and lowest advancing seeds, second highest and second lowest, and so on.

8-Higher seeded teams host all playoff games through the first three rounds. The national title game is held at a neutral site.
