It changes next year with all 4 power conference winners getting a bye week and home playoff game, 1 non power 4 conference team making the playoff, along with 7 other highest ranked teams.

Michigan shouldn't be in at all after being caught cheating for the last 3 years. Even if they were to win the title it will probably be forfeited in a few months.

The new format is still a joke.  Every conference winner should be in the playoffs, along with some at-large/wild card teams.  The champion should be settled on the field, not in some closed door meeting of people who don't play the game.

The the playoffs will include 12 teams, but the 11 conference winners are not automatically in, as they should be.  Instead, we are still going to have a bunch of fat sports writers and others sitting in closed door meeting picking the participants:

"The field of 12 teams will be comprised of the six conference champions ranked highest by the selection committee (no minimum ranking requirement), plus the six highest-ranked other teams. The ranking of the teams will continue to be done by a selection committee whose size, composition, and method of selection will remain substantially unchanged from the current arrangement. The four highest-ranked conference champions will be seeded one through four and each will receive a first-round bye. The other eight teams will play in the first round with the higher seeds hosting the lower seeds either on campus or at other sites designated by the higher-seeded institution."

This doesn't solve the problem.

They are not including every small conference winner because the games would be blowouts and the playoffs would be too many games. With the new format every team has a chance unlike the current system.
