That's not necessarily true. In fact more teams will be rewarded for having a strong finish by having a shot in the playoffs to pull off some upsets. Perfect examples of teams capable of this would be Utah and South Carolina this year. It may also incentivise big programs to schedule stronger non conference opponents during the regular season if one loss doesn't jeopardize their chances at a championship.

Edit: Read wrong, my bad. Points still stand even if response isn't necessarily contextually relevant though
