Exactly. And if they used the AP and coaches poll rankings to get the top 16 teams it shouldn't be a problem. It doesn't seem like a problem week to week when the new polls come out so I don't think it would be a problem towards the end of the year either.
At least with a playoff format, the eventual national champion team would have to win a couple games against quality competition instead of one single game. Any team can win a single game on any given day. Putting together a string of wins against top quality competition takes real talent.
