Four team BCS Playoff gets shot down

Posted by Crackajg

A four team playoff to replace the current BCS championship system has been shot down. I for one think this is bullshit and is the product of greedy television stations and university higher ups not wanting to admit they were wrong with the BCS in the first place. Thoughts?

A four team BCS playoff means that cutting off bowl games wouldn't it? Which would lose profit for the cities that host said cutoff bowl games, and the stations lose money, the advertisers, everyone. The BCS is a downright joke and I don't know about you, but I may have watched all of 1 full college bowl game because it has gotten so ridiculous.

It's not a matter of admitting they were wrong. College Bowl systems give large paydays to D-1 schools that take part. The BCS gives out million dollar paydays, even to the losers. Do you honestly think for one second that Universities are going to give up all that $$$, in order for there to be some sort of a playoff system? Face it, 10 years from now, the BCS will still be used to determine National Championships. Universities LOVE the money.

Also, how else can the committee wrongfully put in Ohio State to get their asses kicked?

Money talks, bullshit walks. The BCS Playoff system will only happen if and when the sole financial beneficiary is the NCAA. They will not approve a plan whereby the top 10-12 Division 1 schools in the country end up making more money than the net worth of Minnesota.

Then why not have the four team playoff and then the complimentary, meaningless bowl games. Or would that make too much sense?

Why add on to the schedule? These are college kids, not professional football players. They have to worry about finals.

If the current bowl schedule doesn't interfere with finals, then neither would a playoff. As for money: in the current BCS system, only one game matters. Using my proposed sixteen team tournament, fifteen games would matter. More games that matter = more money. Not to mention much greater interest.

4 team playoff question:

Who gets in? Who would you have put in this past season? Who decides who gets in?

These 3 questions are all things people complain about with the BCS, and guess what a 4 team play-off has these same issues.
