There's no reason FBS couldn't do something similar. there's a number of one-sided games in each. they don't ruin the tournament.

I like the idea of having each FBS conference champion, not only because it gives all of them a shot but because the conference seasons thus become part of the tournament, making far more games relevant than we have now. I like 16 because I don't care for byes. Each team should have to win the same number of games. You could hold the first round in December after the conference championships without having to lose any other games, then hold the quarter-finals in the major bowls on New Year's Day, then the semi-finals the next week and the finals the week after that, the games being held by the bowl committees.

Alabama-Northern Illinois might be a walk-over game for the Tide but that's OK. And then, it might not:
