You see, the reason college football turns so many people off and why I wouldn't even watch it if OU wasn't a national power is because it's was NEVER played off on the feild. The BCS got me watching again. Even before OU got good again.
Before the BCS the number 1 team would just play a mid ranked team and get voted number one anyway. Only way for number 2 to win was to hope the number 1 team got upset.
So last year Auburn would have probably played a 12th ranked Cincinati team and Oregon play someone else. Oregon would have never had the chance to play them and would have to HOPE Auburn got upset to a crappy team. The year before I gaurantee Alabama would have played the 13th ranked Penn St. (Ohio St. was #10 and would have been in the Rose Bowl) and Texas would have been in the orange bowl likely playing 14th ranked Miami and hoping Bama would get upset by a shity team.
How bout this. PERFECT example..... #1 Ohio St. would have played #7 USC in the Rose bowl (given the Pac 10 and Big 10 Rose Bowl tie in) and LSU would not have won the NC because they'd have been playing in the cotton bowl or something.
So, to me, until something better comes along, the BCS is FAR SUPERIOR to what it used to be. |
So.. What does any of that have to do with my comments about conference championships??
Michigan could be, and should be 4-0. SDSU is good but I think we're better. We'll see. I don't care about 4-0 though. We were 4-0 the last 2 years too and we sucked.
