The Death of the BCS

2
Vote

by PSU ROCKS

Now im not sure about you but I know ive been waiting for a long time for a college football season like this. Theres been a major upset every week it seems like and the BCS cant understand how big some are. Two teams are undefeated as of now #3 Kansas and #16 Hawaii. Now if both teams finish the regular season undefeated people will wont these two teams to play for the BCS championship. Now you might say that Kansas hasnt played anyone good but a few teams they played started the season either ranked or close to it. And the bad teams they played werent close. They were Kansas blow outs and if they beat #5 Missouri wouldnt that say alot for there talent. Just look at what they did to Nebraska. Now Hawaii is 9-0 and ranked 16th. You may say well there not in a tough divison there schedule was weak. Listen im a Penn State lover and I know how it feels to be screwed out of national championships just because people are afraid to regonize a independent as good. Lets not treat Hawaii the same. If #1 cant beat easy teams why dont good teams get regonized when they crush teams of equal talent that just beat #1. Do you want to let another team down and say your not good enough when they have proven they are. If Hawaii beats Boise and Kansas beats Missouri and both go undefeated please give them what they have proven to desearve.

No, this season is exactly why the BCS works. Any playoff system would not be flexible enough to deal with all the variables that result from a college football season. The BCS at least tries to recognize all the things that can happen and does the best it can to manage them. After this season their will not be enough money to change the system. The Big-12 winner should leapfrog Oregon, and hawaii won't get a bcs bowl (and if you think they deserve a title shot, under the current systenm, maybe you should watch some college football). Under a playoff the if michigan beats OSU they would get to participate, as a 3 loss team that lost to a Div-1aa school. No thanks. They don't deserve any title shot.

Yeah, the BCS works when two straight years go by with at least one undefeated team who isn't given the oppertunity to win the national championship game. Right...

The Pip, what more could Hawaii do this year to earn a title shot, or even a BCS Bowl bid? Isn't winning every game the most any team can do? I really don't see how this season demonstrates why the BCS works. There will be no clear 1 and 2 this year, and the main point of the BCS is to select a clear 1 and 2 and have them play for the national championship.

Pip, in this situation, who do you think deserves to play for the national championship game in a plus-one system?
