Dick Vitale on the BCS

Why are folks so afraid to make subjective judgements about team quality?

Really, I mean subjectively Miami was was 4 touchdowns better than Ohio State in 2002. Why did they play a game at all? :shake:

Set up a playoff system that guarnatees one loss teams from major conferences get in and see how long it is before OSU plays Texas again.

If a team can afford to lose a game and not lose their season at the same time, I'll think you'll see more marquee matchups like Texas and Ohio State.

The game ain't broke. Don't break it.

That would be poetic if the game weren't broken.

I used to really like college (and pro, for that matter) basketball, but this douche Vitale is one of the things that finally made me sick of it. The truth is that I just don't care. There are so many games (preseason, early out of conference, conference, conference tournament, and OMG The Big Dance) on so many stations involving so many teams that I'm way over saturated. I don't even read conference standings in the paper any more, much less fill out a tournament bracket so I can see how I stack up against the IT guy and the secretary who's never even seen a basketball game for March Madness. JHFCOABGDC, is there a more hyped sport with less substance anywhere?

Because it's so much more fun to be oversaturated with discussion about computers and controversy than actual games.

About the only thing he said that made any sense is that there's no chance for a team in a little conference to get to the big game. However, the level of talent in College football for major programs normally completely overpowers the talent from the lower conferences. Granted there's a 1-2 player exception at times, but overall...

I don't disagree, but does that mean it shouldn't be settled on the field just because we've already determined what 'would' happen if they played? Kinda like Miami-Ohio State 2002 - no need to play, because we all knew what would happen.
