My understanding is that they can't call it a championship game unless a playoff system is used.

Bingo.

They aren't forcing them to change it to a playoff, that's been said from the beginning. From what I understand is, that they can't promote the championship game as "National" Championship unless it is a result of them playing a playoff. They don't have to change the system, no ban on it or anything like that, but if they want to call it the "National Title Game" or whatever...they can't if they keep the same system, has to be a playoff.
