I used to be vehemently opposed to a playoff system specifically for that reason: It would make the non-playoff bowl games feel less special.
Now, though, I feel like we need to go the other way and open up the playoff to more teams so it feels like everyone has a chance when the season kicks off.
The days of the Sugar Bowl feeling special to fans on its own are unfortunately gone. The only way to come close to replicating that IMO is to give all conferences an automatic playoff berth, so conference championship games become the stand-in for what big bowl games were before.
