Seems you are only thinking of the current system...you have think beyond.

I like 2 things about the current system; the regular season is the biggest factor in deciding who plays in the championship, and that there is a consolation prize for the also-rans (bowls).
As far as thinking beyond it, why? Ideally, the regular season should determine the champion. Since sports leagues have grown so big that there's now no way to clearly determine a champion in the regular season, you often need playoffs.
Unfortunately, most playoffs are just another season tacked on top of the original one. I don't want to see that happen in college football. Right now it's the only sport where every regular game matters. That's the way it should be.
