Okay before I sound like an idiot and rip both of the conferences for not having a conference playoff, I did a little research and found out it is an NCAA rule that a conference must have 12 teams. Pac -10 has ten teams and the Big 10 has eleven teams. Big 10 really needs to scoop up Notre Dame to make it 12 teams so they can have a playoff.
The Pac-10 does a nice job I guess, with their round robin system, but if you have a 3-way tie at the top there will be hell to pay to those left out.
I was going to go on a huge rant about how these conferences are stupid and need to give up the Rose Bowl tradition if that is keeping them from having conference championships, but its not.
Who does the blame go to? The NCAA, they are more sleazy than oil men. I have yet to go on my NCAA sports rant of how it truly is modern slavery in its most sophisticated form. We are gonna leave that conversation to December, when the BCS chaos is at its highest and players are getting dumped left and right from teams for academic issues. 'Til then....see you when I see you.
Peace,
