Re: BCS poll
It's a little amusing to me, as a non-college football fan, to see this poll and not find any W-L records.

They used to at least say how many games they lost as it figured in. But now, nope....nothing. b |

Re: BCS poll
obviously this is not a perfect system. that has been proven in its many forumlas over the past 7 1/2 years. I think this is the closest to perfect i have ever seen a BCS poll. There is still a lot of time left an the season, and this will undoubtedly change.
The glaring error here is ND. They are ranked 16th overall, but in the computer polls, they are ranked 25th, 25th, 23rd, 22nd, and NR in 2 polls. However, this will not matter if ND loses another game, or if they win out. If they lose, Toilet Bowl, if they win out, they will get one of the two "wild card" bids. |

You cant have a 12-0 USC team having to win as many playoff games as a 10-2 Miami team to win a National Championship. Oh and if you are USC and alreayd ahve 10 wins and are #1 why not sit all your starters to make sure they are healthy for the "playoffs" considering you are gauranteed at least the 8th spot. It is harder to put together a playoff sytem then to just say make an 8 team playoff. |

Re: BCS poll
Not really. Eight team playoff. Use current BCS system and award a statistically-appropriate bonus to the conference champions. (Take THAT, ND.) The BCS bowls then become the quarterfinals. Semis and championships rotate between the bowls, or else occur at newly-designated permanent sites. Simple, elegant, makes infinitely more sense than what we do now.
