I think most people would love it, unless the final 8 include 4-5 SEC teams.  
.
This is all from what happened in 2011.  Final 2 teams, 2 SEC schools.  Boo!  Let's expand.
Final 4 teams, 2-3 are SEC+ Clemson schools  Boo!  Let's expand.
Final 12 teams, 4-5 SEC schools.  
.
Rinse, repeat.

With the path laid out above for TN, it would more than likely end up and all SEC final again. 

OM then TCU, yeah, I like it.

A one loss PAC12 champion would be better than one loss Tennessee or the Big Ten East runner up for that matter.

False. 

With those PAC and B1G schedules who couldn’t look good?

I don’t understand the fictional. Is that what you are projecting at the end of the season, prior to bowls?

The bias is playing a challenging schedule.  

Ohio St. does it, and they are always rewarded for it.  

Not sure why the rest of the country hasn’t caught on.
