The BCS is just plain bad - [11:29 AM]

Are you like me? After watching a few bowl games are you left scratching your head thinking "This is the best they could do?" The BCS is a complete joke this year. Your National Title game may not be between the best two teams in College Football, but since you don't have a true playoff system we'll never know. How 'bout we get the teams together in a sandlot somewhere and have a real playoff?

Who are the hottest teams in College Football today? Oklahoma, Florida, USC, and Ole Miss. Huh, Ole Miss? Yes that right, Ole Miss. The Rebels, 8-4, hammered former #1 Texas Tech yesterday in the Cotton Bowl, and beat current #2 Florida earlier in the season, Florida's only loss of the year. How do we fix this?

I've been a proponent of a 16 game tournament, which, unfortunately, would've left a very good Ole Miss team out in the cold, but would at the very least allowed teams to play for a title instead of rewarding two teams based on what the pundits and computers think.

It would be possible to fit the games into the schedule, the problem is, as always, money. That doesn't mean the BCS is corrupt, it's just become as old and out dated as the system it was intended to replace.

Further proof the BCS is wrong.

1) The Pac-10 goes 5-0 in bowl games.
2) #6 Utah upsets #4 Alabama, that wasn't supposed to happen. Utah will be screwed in the final polls. The nations only undefeated will not be #1.
3) USC trounces Penn State, the score didn't tell the story.
4) Ole Miss beat a very good Texas Tech.
5) Oregon beat Oklahoma State, a team that lost to three #1's. Texas, Oklahoma, and Texas Tech.
