F the BCS, F the Bowls, We Need A Playoff !! The BCS and the Bowls are a gigantic conspiracy to make a lot of money, provide entertainment and nothing more.
Here we have the most popular major college sport (with hoops a close second) and yet it's the only NCAA sport that has absolutely no integrity when it comes to determining the national champion.
People say how great the bowls are, my god isn't the pageantry wonderful, blah, blah, blah...
I say a simple four or eight team playoff would blow the doors off the bowls 100 times over if it were instituted. The TV ratings would easily surpass any of the bowl games simply because they would instantly be better quality games, because they'd be better matchups and more meaningful as they progressed to the championship round over a two or three week period. They would put the NCAA basketball tournament and Final Four to shame.
The hypocrisy of the major colleges makes me sick. University administrators say they can't support a playoff because, after all, these poor student athletes can't be expected to keep playing games after the regular season, but everyone knows it's all about money. Get into a top tier bowl game and here comes $10 million dollars for the old university. Who cares who wins? Just bring home the payola, baby.
THIS THREAD FTW!!!

How long are you going to be upset for ? Input, please ? I'm fuming inside as much as all of you are since I truly believe that we have gotten robbed on this one. We all know that. As Gene Wojciechowski has said it, this is a highway robbery.
Highway Robbery
I think it's okay to be upset about it. In fact, fans of other teams have shown their sympathy.
However, we need to learn to deal with it. No amount of whining and bitching can change what's happened.
So question is: How long are you going to be upset for ?
I was
very very upset after the BCS announcement. I'm trying to let it go now as I have to focus back on my work tomorrow morning. We should really start to let it go now.
Don't you think ? Input, please ?

Re: How long are you going to be upset for ? Input, please I want to add that I will take my newfound hatred of Gary Danielson to my grave as well. His rediculous chart no doubt changed several coaches minds who probably never watched any games until that last week.
I love how the Vandy game was a push on his chart. Florida almost loses to Vandy and Michigan dominates Vandy. How is that a push? Its a common opponent, talk about it, elaborate on it Danielson! Man, I hate that guy!

It's in the faithful. It's in the faith. This is the thing that gives the Buckeyes an edge, the Ohio State spirit, the unwavering practice of devotion, devotion the way Woody would want it, and the way John Cooper never could understand. It's a thing so deep it has no roots, so wide it's got no shores. It's a thing that can't be contained, can't be kept under a bushel, or left lying quiet in a heart. It's a thing that has to be sung out, made manifest.

Re: Urban, My Hero Oh and you are right---UF is way over rated. I can't stand the fact that I own my own law firm with 26 employees and have averaged about $500K a year for the last 4 years. I am just a dumb a#$. Oh, and I fired the only UM grad I ever hired because he could not argue his way out of a wet paper sack. Give me a break!!!!
