Agreed. Anyone who thinks a D1 playoff will not generate more income is out of their minds.

What do the pro sports do? The playoffs are the biggest money maker of all. Wouldn't the NFL have a BCS style end of season if it was the way to make money?

Aside from the money, a playoff is the only fair way to end the season. Let teams make their reputation on the field. ND bowl appearances are a joke. Lost nine bowl games in a row by an average of more than two TDs. Thats affirmative action for football - putting an unqualified team in a situation where they are bound to fail. It also means nine times a more deserving team was denied the money and prestige that goes with a major bowl.
