Why do you think that this would force a push to 8? The conferences with a CCG have all the votes.

It's not a national champion when only teams from 5 conferences are eligible. You might call yourself that but people won't recognize it as the same.
Same reason the NCAA Tournament is a far more popular "Champion". People know it's something that is won after everyone has competed. People knew ND/Bama was a sham. Not as bad as the year before but still a sham.
I doubt CFB can ever get there honestly. It's too complicated of a setup with all the bowls. The bowls see themselves as an end-all. They don't want to be a component of a playoff, no matter how many teams.
