I'll rephrase it give me one good reason why there should not be a playoff
[/ QUOTE ]
There's already a playoff. It's called the regular season.
What if there was a playoff this year? It's clear that USC and Texas are 1 and 2 this year - if a playoff was in place, either of those teams could lose, and then your national championship game isn't matching the two best teams.
Also, if it's a 4-team playoff, who are the other two teams? Penn St, Va Tech, LSU? What about an 8 team playoff, who gets left out - OSU, ND, Oregon, Miami, Auburn?
There's no perfect system, but the one in place still keeps the regular season games extremely important.

So tell me, at what point in last year's season was Auburn played off? How about Utah?
Just because it will work this year, doesn't mean that it is the best system possible (and it is an improvement over the old system).
It would be possible to have an undisputed national champion (with everyone getting a chance at it) without lenghtening the season at all. The college football people just don't want to do it.
