Should a #23 ranked West Virginia get to go to a playoff while Bama sits at home?

but, but, but...

ugh.


Yes, they should. Just like the playoffs at any other level of football.

Add in a wildcard round, if necessary, but a playoff system works in every other level of football, and in every other sport. D-1A college football is not some mystical sport that sets it apart.
