The BCS is a travesty.
The BCS remains fatally flawed. Two-thirds of the vote is based upon poll rankings. The same teams appear in the top 25 year end and year out during the pre-season polls despite graduation losses or potential strength of schedule. Therefore, unless one starts as nearly Top 10 or better, they will not get in the title game as it is too hard to climb to the top starting any lower than that.
The Orange Bowl this year, for the title, will go to two of the schools forever ranked in the top 10. No one can break in to steal the spotlight.
Examples: A team like Fla St can lose its first game, but by week # 6, be right back in the mix (in the top 7 now) as it is today again by week # 6 of the season.
A team like Purdue can lose at the end of a game on a fluke play in the 6th week to another good team, and will have no chance to climb back into the picture, despite its ONE loss. Why? Because Purdue it not a traditional top 10 team.
