One thing I don’t like about the BCS is this stretching the bowl games over so long a time. A championship game on January 10 is just dopey. The BCS has delivered what it said it would deliver and that is the two best teams playing each other. If there was no BCS then we would have perhaps Oregon going to the Rose Bowl playing Big Ten champ Wisconsin while Auburn would have gone to the Sugar Bowl to perhaps play Stanford or TCU. So the good thing about the BCS is that we get the two best teams playing each other. We just argue over who the two best teams are. My idea is just as the BCS chooses two teams we should have a committee of credibility choose four teams and we could have those four teams play each other on New Years Day and then a week later have the two winners play each other.
I disagree. If you watch the sports with payoffs, you will see out of sight teams win all the time. I don’t want some drunk sports writers that can’t hold real jobs telling me anything. I want to see final scores. That tells me what I want to know.
“So the good thing about the BCS is that we get the two best teams playing each other.”
At the Rose Bowl? Yeah, I have to agree with you. That was an exceptional game. Perfect for the national champions.
It's a snoozefest. I don't even remember whose playing nor what bowl game is on.
And simply goes to prove that "Student Athletes" are anything but.
These kids need to be in school, but the Big 10 (12), Pac 10 (12) and SEC will do anything for the dollars.
