I 100% agree that is the best way to do things and I think it would draw eyeballs (But I suspect division of money when you try to plan something out becomes the issue).    I proposed in a thread a few weeks back something similar to you.

At the end of December, you take a top half and bottom half team of each conference according to NET.   Then you have a program that randomly matches each P6 school against another (top half or bottom half) depending on your standing.
2 games in some week in January 
2 games in some week in February
 (you could already have the dates and location slotted, just not the opponent until December)

My guess why it doesn't happen - money.   It seems like there is more money to be made by doing this, but since its interconference division of money will always be a question.

In the end, until this year, I think for the most part the P6 were satisfied with the system.   They dominate in OOC, it creates a mechanism that largely blackballs smaller conference teams because of lack of opp's, all the P6 benefit in whole, but the biggest benefitee is the ones that played the best in OOC.   Now with all the Q4 games being played, it murks things up a bit - which is why I suggested a NET/RPI hybrid since RPI punishes Q4, but is also a little too friendly too Q3 games.
