The BCS is (Blank)

What up, what up, what up,

We'll I'm smiling today. I was able to trout around the UT campus with a proud OU Sooner heart. I was busy so I wasn't able to gloat too much, but nevertheless, I was smiling all day long.

If you live under a rock or just don't like college football, you may not know that the Texas Longhorns got screwed, but not really. The problem is this, in the case of a 3 way tie in either of the Big 12 divisions results in a tiebreaker of whoever is the highest ranked BCS team. Texas, Texas Tech, and OU all tied in the Big 12 South. OU had the highest BCS ranking so they went, point blank. Texas beat OU head to head 45-35 back in October. If it were to come down to only Texas and OU then yes the obvious thing to do is allow the head to head winner to move on to the Big 12 championship. The tricky thing is the three way tie. Who is to say Texas should get in over Texas Tech? I don't have the answer to this problem, and I don't care, OU is moving on.

In this case the BCS is cool. It has done nothing wrong at all. I'd love nothing more than to see a playoff so we could end all of this nonsense. If you used the BCS to set up the playoff. I wouldn't use the 8 team format everyone suggest. I'd go with a NFL setup of only 6 teams that way the top two teams would be awarded with a bye week. You would have one less week of play. (This is for the people who pretend to care about the players by using academics as a guise) The bowl games could still be played with no problem. What you would do is have the regular non BCS bowl games played at their regular times. The BCS games would be played over the course of four weeks. The season would be shortened because it makes no sense for teams to get two weeks off, and that would be decreased to one bye week. There would be four games total played, and those four would be the Orange, Sugar, Rose, and Fiesta. The deciding championship bowl game would be rotated each year.

Yep, I'm pretty smart.


Peace out,
