so i was interested in hearing what you all thought about how the BCS works or if you think they need to add a playoff system. Im all high on my Buckeyes playin in the Natty championship again, but if you watch college football you see how messed up it was gettin there.

I felt Oklahoma kinda got shafted, but Hawaii really got burned. sucks so bad for them.

Auburn got the shaft a couple of years ago when USC and Oklahoma also went undefeated and we were left out, so I'm not too high on the BCS. I think if Division II teams can play a few extra games for a tournament, there's no reason the big boys can't. Hell, I'd be happy if they just took the top 4 teams and played a two round tourney.

I don't think Hawaii got burned at all. They have a cupcake schedule. Their toughest game this year was Boise State, another team that with a cupcake schedule.

The BCS might not be the best thing, but there will never be a playoff, the bowl system has lasted too long and means too much to the colleges, and also takes into account the entire season, not just a few games in a playoff, and by the way, brings in a hell of a lot of money. So I don't know, I just don't see the playoff happening, the powers that be seem to be really against it. And on Hawaii, they're horrible, if they played in the SEC, they'd have a losing record, 5-6, maybe, a big maybe.

an emphatic YES! the BCS does not work the way that it is set up right now. a playoff system would ensure that the teams that deserve to be there are there.

WDE PrepHippie from B'ham.....

Why did you want to bring up Auburn getting the short end of the stick again.... I was just starting to purge that out ... now you have me all in a tissy again!!!!

In my simplistic little brain....
Run the play-off's through the existing bowl system, Start earlier, and go later... Wait... Those guys are supposed to be students as well, aren't they? Oh well, that's what summer classes are for....
PEACE,
