We need a year with like 5 teams with only one loss and no undefeated's. Two of them have to be in the same conference and Notre Dame needs two losses but a high ranking at seasons end. This will result in not only three teams on equal footing with the two in the national title game being arbitrarily snubbed, but also a one loss team from a power conference not qualifying for the BCS. But, I am sure the usual figureheads will have some convuluded way of justifying there decisions.
Essentially The BCS is like prohibition, we need organized crime to corrupt the system for cooler heads to subsequently prevail.

That would be funny for sure, but like you said they will have a reason for it. This is probably because they have thought of all of these scenarios before they even implemented the system...

they should have it the way that basketball does it

I'm sure a lot of people agree, Kasey fan. Of course, they'd need to use fewer teams, but a March Madness style playoff in college football sure would be nice!

[Kasey Kahne 9 fan]

yeah they should have the Basketball style with only 16 teams instead of 32 or 64 or w/e it is exactly

How would the teams be picked? The conference winners of all the major conferences? How would they be seeded? I'm in favor of a playoff system, but, we also have to remember that these guys are students first, athletes second. I also don't think that there bodies can handle a NFL-type of schedule and having a playoff system somewhat like basketball would bring something like that around.

BCS chief: new system needs explaining - NCAAF - Yahoo! Sports

I'm dumb. I read the above article twice and I,m still confused what its all about.

Whoever could successfully explain the BCS would immediately be put to work solving the crisis in the Middle East.

do you guys think if they went to a playoff system instead of a BCS system that the main bowls would be angry and in return theyd lose alot of revenue that would of been brought in under the current system,

i dunno the rose bowl doesnt have the same ring to it as a game in the first round compared to the rose bowl thats isnt the bcs championship game

im all for changing the setup but i think the prob is keeping the history behind the bowls like, rose,orange,fiesta, and sugar bowl. I mean if WVU won the sugar bowl last year as an opening rd i wouldnt be as excited for this upcoming season as i am

Why do they use the computers in my opinion the Refs are more reliable have all the refs or coaches crush out the top teams

[mervinout]

they use computers because computers arent bias like a human

[Kasey Kahne 9 fan]

Yeah but Computers don't really know whats going on

The only problem I have with the BCS is that the Rose Bowl is part of the rotation. I'm old school when it comes to that. Having grown-up with it being the Big-10 champ versus the PAC-10 champ. I liked having that prestigue with being affiliated with the oldest bowl game.

no but you can change a computers way of thinking you cant change a sports beat reporter or a coaches mind on how the rankings should be viewed
