and OU...
If they all win... the committee is hosed. It's not likely LSU falls out, and that would absolutely put UGA in. If the committee put them both in, they would be:
putting a 1-loss non champ (LSU) in over TWO 1-loss P5 conference champs.
There is no way the CFP survives that, IMO.

team playoff from the onset: I suspected high controversy at some point with two P5's left out on too many occasions.
I honestly believe if your scenario were to prevail, the Pac12 and Big12 would revolt.

It would really get nuts if both LSU and OSU lost

Everyone seems to think that both LSU and OSU are locks at this point, even if they lose this weekend. That may be true if just one of them loses, but what if they BOTH lose and Utah wins? Now you have Clemson and Georgia in with 12-1 LSU, 12-1 OSU, 12-1 OU/Baylor, and 12-1 Utah all sitting there. Do you really leave out both of the 12-1 conference champs for two 12-1 non-champs?

LSU and OSU have been hyped so much all season... that either team is left out, regardless of the outcome of their games this weekend.
The committee is pulling for both to win.
The will still have a controversy if both Utah and OU win... but that is nothing compared to the scenario we're talking about should UGA/Wisc. win

Playoffs and bowls are all about money and the playoffs aren’t generating enough money yet to kill the bowls. The championship game last year wasn’t even close to a sellout. I know some will say it was because it was in San Francisco, but the NCAA Final Four will sellout a 70k arena anywhere its played.

I'm on record advocating for an expansion

But only if that expansion uses conference championships as the key to entry.
Barring that, I think this year is a prime example of *having* to figure out who the "best" team is to fill the #4 seed. It isn't so much that we have 7 or 8 great teams and its hard to whittle that down to 4, but rather it seems there are 3 teams at a level above the others, and we have to put a forth in to fill the field.
Not a fan of expansion if it is just going to pick more "good" teams based on abstract opinion-based metrics.
