Another disadvantage to more playoff games.
Empty stadiums. Much of the season, teams play reasonably close to where the bulk of their fans live. If you want fans in their seats, adding another game that requires cross-country travel and time off from work, is not going to do it. I have a friend who lives in Nashville. He drove to the SEC Championship, but still had to spend on rooms (at inflated rates). He flew to Miami, and between airfare and hotel, dropped a little over $2k. The trip to CA for the championship will end up cost closer to $3k, and require another day off from work.

Come on, Indiana is the upper MidWest, certainly not the NE nor even the middle Atlantic States, and ND is the one private school with the money to make a playoff, the schools money, they are in a unique situation, only home college scene that is tourist attraction even if you care less about football
According to publications put out by those schools? And it not just what you think is self-sustaining, what if OSU, I know you didn't mean OU, loses money on football one year, or doesn't make the level to pay their army of coaches, who makes up the difference to finance next years team?
