This Year Could Create a Larger Buzz for a Playoff System!

2
Vote


By User Mudfreesports

In year's past, the fact that an odd number of teams had undefeated records going into the Bowl Games brought up controversy, upset fans, and people calling for a playoff system. Usually it was because there were undefeated national powers and an undefeated Mid-Major or a one loss national power. This year, we have a unique situation occuring. Few undefeated teams and the one national power that is undefeated, Ohio State, isn't the national power of years past and hasn't been tested until today.

We will have a number of quality one and two loss national powers that will be making noise for not making the national title game. This may be just what those of us need to have a playoff system implemented. The more schools affected by being excluded will do more to get those schools' presidents on board and start talking to the right people to make it all happen. Wouldn't you want to see a LSU vs. Rutgers in the first round of a playoff? Or Ohio State vs. Va. Tech? Or Cal vs. Missouri? This what we want, so let parity reign and bring on a playoff system.

Vote this weekend on which conference you think is the best in all the land at http://mudfreesports.blogspot.com

I have always said there should be a playoff system.. not just one or two games but a legitimate playoff system with 8 or better yet 16 teams. To many conferences dont play each other much and no one really knows when a team like Ohio Stae is that dominate, look at them last year everyone thought they were unstoppable, then look what happened when Fla came calling. Definately need a playoff system and a good sound one too.

I also believe a large majority of the fans want it also... but the money bags running the BCS just are afraid to lose a buck instead of having a legit playoff.

Since you included Missouri, I'm intrigued.
