hmmmm, I'm kinda lost at what you are saying now. One bowl does count, the championship game. The others are for pride only. In any organized sport, you work your tail off to win a title and be the best in your league. As it stands now, we don't have that in college football. Just think if they did this in the NFL. The Giants wouldn't have had the opportunity to win the SB last year. Of course some teams would be left out, but at the same time, teams in the NFL have numerous chances during the regular season to win and get in. Lose one game in college reg season, and it ends up being the luck of a vote.
You can make a case for 6-10 teams in college. Yet only 2 get that opportunity. Keep in mind, this is coming from an OU fan....
