its all about ratings!
And I'm sure the "computer" is programmed to take that into consideration ;)
I admit that I have loathed the BCS from the very beginning when they threw out all the traditions of the College Bowl system in favor of TV bucks. It was supposed to take all the guesswork out of who was number one, it's just added to the confusion. IMHO, of course.
Of course it is. The whole BCS shindig is a demon spawn of the networks' sports departments.
