Mr. Binsrick, your life is shallow and vacant. You must seek happiness elsewhere! Take up birding or needlepoint. Relax and enjoy nature. These feelings of needing sports will pass. Surrender yourself to the force!

Which of the clauses in Article I Section 8 delegates responsibility for college football bowl games to the Federal Government? Seems to me that they will first need to pass an amendment adding college football bowl games to the list of delegated Federal responsibilities.

It has to do with gambling revenue. If there is a way to determine a true champion, the bookies will dance in the streets.

In the BCS system, though, the stronger conferences and teams are actually given an easier path to a BCS bowl game while the teams in the non-BCS conferences have to overcome many more obstacles to get into one. I don't oppose a playoff system, but this article is mostly nonsense. The stronger teams in stronger conferences have a far more difficult path to the BCS because they play far stronger competition week-after-week. Some of the secondary conferences have only one or two decent teams that go through their schedule easily, having plenty of time to prepare for the one or two decent opponents they face each year.

If Texas even dreams of beating Alabama, they better wake up and apologize.

No big fan of the BCS but in no proposed solution have I heard how sponsors are going to be forced to back games they don't want.

I believe that college football was better before they pretended to have a national champion. Let the best teams play each other by being invited to bowl games, with the more prestigious bowls getting the better match-ups, and after the last bowl game we can argue for a year as to who was the best. Don’t even have the pretense of a “playoff” or championship game when there are dozens of competitive schools.

Texas Tech should be named the winner and the atheletic director given the Nobel prize. College is all about football. All those class thingies are a distraction.

Yeah, we're gonna beat them like the proverbial rented mule!
Roll Tide!

I could see Leach winding up at Miami, once they finally can Shannon.
