The Universities will loose money. You have to realize a team that goes to a BCS Bowl gets about 4.5 million dollars. And a team that plays in lets say the Alamo Bowl gets about 1.2 million. Many teams that were getting bowl bids every year wouldn't make the playoffs and the school wont receive that money anymore.
Besides college football is now playing 12 games a season. (Excluding Conference Championships and Bowl Games) That's a long enough year.... these are college kids not the big boys. There is no need for a playoff when you have so many teams that will never get to participate in the post season. There are 119 Division 1A Schools, and a lot of those schools will never see playoff action.
Unlike NCAA Basketball, NCAA Football is dominated by about 40 schools or so. The same teams will be in the playoffs every year and we will never see teams progress. In order for a playoff system to work you would also need a NIT for football, which would make things even more complicating and less exiting.

One the coolest causes the BCS replaced into created (except money) replaced into to do away with chop up nationwide championships, like the only which handed off in 1997 between Michigan and Nebraska. Then, in 2003, LSU and USC chop up the nationwide championship with LSU prevailing the BCS identify, and USC getting voted #a million contained in the AP poll. nicely, wager WHAT?? the USA of a right now and Harris polls will sense compelled to position LSU at #2 prior to Georgia so as that LSU can play contained in the nationwide identify sport. The AP isn't lined contained in the BCS rankings, and could sense no such stress to flow LSU prior to Georgia. If LSU wins the identify sport and Georgia wins the Sugar Bowl: chop up nationwide CHAMPIONSHIP!! thanks BCS, for once back, no longer being in a position forestall the in straightforward words adventure you've been created to end.

32's too many. 16 will work (besides, NCAA regs don't allow for more than 25% of participating schools to be in a playoff, so 32 wouldn't be allowed anyway).
Beyond that, there is no good reason not to have a playoff.

colleges are greedy and, if there was a playoff system in place, they they would lose the money they get from all the big companies that sponsor all those meaningless bowl games.
