it actually worked this year

[/ QUOTE ]

It "works" every year in which there are exactly two undefeated major conference teams. And that's about it.

and the sad thing is it woulda worked with the old system too.

the bcs pretty much solves what it was set forth to do: choose the best 2 teams (scientifically, which may be flawed), to play for the national title.

any time there are 3 undefeated teams and no playoffs, people are going to whine and bitch about it.

honestly, to all your BCS bashers out there, what do you expect this system to do, magically give on of the three teams a loss?

Playoffs are the only solution, but the greedy NCAA won't have any of it.

Not true

In the old system, it would have been this-


Rose Bowl USC-Penn State
Fiesta Texas-Notre Dame
Orange Florida State-West Virginia
Sugar Georgia-Ohio State

Oregon would still be at the holiday bowl. and #1 and #2 wouldn't be playing

How ironic that if this were the case, PSU would have a shot at the national title by beating USC and ND beating Texas (I can dream!), after going undefeated and not having a shot in '94.
