It is superfluous Proggy.

There are never more then 8 teams with a real right to be called champion.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

So is the bowl system. But it's profitable and fair. Just cut the regular season back, that eliminates the injury problem.

Regular season is great, every game matters. My suggesion deosn;t change any of that, it just gives evey deserving team a shot in the end.

tell me you wouldn't love that eight team playoff this year.

The problem doesnt lie with the BCS, the problem lies with tiebreakers. The Tiebreaker games should only take into account #2-#3 and possibly #4 if needed. If texas were to play Okla on a tie breaker game and the winner of that played florida you'd have almost no one complaining except maybe boise st and USC (Has no grounds, hasnt beat anyone). The only reason why boise st didnt make it is because of hawaii. When hawaii played georgia it was the lowest rated BCS bowl ever and hawaii just stunk it up. I know the arguement is going to be, well Boise St is good they beat Oklahoma. They won it on 2 fluke plays and the ratings of the game was almost as bad as the hawaii game.

Alabama had their shot @ the national chamionship game and lost. And who has Penn St beaten? and NO Ohio st is not a team. IF Penn St had gone undefeated then it would be different, but they lost.

Tx Lost on the Last play of a game, a couple of plays prior could have easily been won if gideon had caught the ball. Also texas had 4 days to prepare for that game after playing 3 huge games prior to that and winning. Oklahoma had 2 weeks to prepare for that game. Also Oklahoma had not gone though the Guantlet that Texas did.

Not fair to say.

Oklahoma had their shot and lost and still they are in the title game. Florida is probably better then Texas...but lost to Ole Miss which is worse then Iowa...no transitive property in college football.

Sec I thought played out perfect, No one really complained much about that conference because most teams considered Florida to be the best, while others considered undefeated Alabama to be the best. Florida won and therefore is in the national championship game. Texas had no such chance to prove themself in the later part of the year but did when they beat the team going into the Nation championship game now.

And you say Mississippi like its a BAD team. Have you looked @ their schedule? I doubt you have so i'll run it down for you.

LSU - Won 31-13
Auburn Won 17-7
Alabama Lost 20-24 AT ALABAMA!
Arkansas Won 23-21

So by no stretch are they a BAD team. All their loses combined are -16 points!!. OF those 4 games they lost by an average of 4 teams. One of which was a #1 Team in Alabama.

LMFAO!! IOWA played MAINE! You have to be kidding me! Maine is like D3 Football.. they are a terrible team. I know I'm from maine. And Ioaw has beaten no one!

Either is Iowa, they beat Penn State who beat Oregon State by 50 who beat USC.
