Time for a real BCS Playoff system!

This is the year of the meltdown. The BCS won't be able to hide from the chaos of the next 3-4 weeks. This is truly a sad commentary on what could have been a great platform. A Playoff System Now campaign is under way! Our votes matter. The Fans pay the bill for all of this and we should be heard!

The other component to the BCS nightmare would have been a 9-win Notre Dame ranked in the top-14. Luckily Pitt knocked them off in the fourth OT. Now we won't have to endure an overrated ND in a BCS Bowl and watch them lose their how many bowl games in a row?

That's a pretty good example of why the BCS rankings are a joke. If you look at Oregon State's schedule compared to Boise's, any game BSU plays -- with the exception of Oregon --would have been by far the easiest game of OSU's entire season. While Pac 10 teams play ranked teams one after another, Boise plays high school teams. BSU wouldn't having a winning record in any real conference, and yet they are always in the running for a BCS bowl. What a laugh.

Yes, it is hard to argue that 6 non BCS teams in the BCS top 25 is not progress.

I've got 2 cents

It's time for us to pool our resources ( before the Barack Obama redistribution of wealth plan kicks in ), start up a four team playoff in the third and fourth weeks of January. We decide the who the four teams are and setup the TV arrangements. We could make millions...

That's better. It's much easier to read with the added size. I think it'd also be easier if the block background around it were one large rectangular block. I don't know that that option of editing would be available for posting though. Anyway, now I can actually read it, so thanks.

Tomcat:

I'm still in agreement that Ohio State is just fine. They've run into some really good teams over the last few years. They've started a "true" frosh at QB this year - and may yet finish out at 10-2. Also, they are currently leading the recruiting race for this year. I really cannot understand why Buck fans would be so disappointed. They've had one of the very best records over the last several years. And, it looks like the best may be to come. The Bucks are definately a Top Five program. Just a "little" down for this year is all.

A few years ago we lamented no non-BCS teams. Now we're saying there might not be enough non-BCS teams?? Sounds like progress to me.

I wouldnt say Tom was miserable heck his team lost two games against top-ten opponents, he's probably disappointed and hopes of a MNC game are notlooking to favorable, but these guys still have a winning program and weren't beat by an inferior opponent, but lost to two teams that will probably be conference Champs.

Right Now looks like Tulsa vs Utah for MNC
All the more reason for the dreaded playoff or plus one senerio
lot of really good quality teams and some teams are going to get left out
Texas vs Texas Tech
Texas Tech vs OK State
Ok State vs OU
Texas Tech vs OU
Texas vs Kansas
XII South vs XII North -Champ game- All these games have to be played out, its way to early to know anything and at this point- All these teams match up real well against one another and every week is like a Championship game

Meh, I'd be fine with it.

Everyone should be as miserable as me and Tom Blogical this season.

Don't worry. Southern Cal is gonna save you from the "boogey-man". You can go back to sleep now. It was just a horrible nightmare. Would you like a gummey-bear before bedtime?

You don't like the Oregon State/Halloween theme?

EDIT: In adding a theme I inadvertently altered other style parameters. Not sure what all got broke, but I did make it bigger.

I am still tasting the nauseous flavor of the team cheer I ended the thread on.

Wow. Is is just me or does Ben seem like he knows way too much about this stuff? Don't even talk about equations and factors and formula's......you would need a well digger's certification to get that deep!

At least he's always championing the cause for the little guy. Gotta love that.
