of course, it's ironic that nicky is the one mentioning it. he benefitted from the same screwy system last year, that saw his team on the outside looking on on sec championship day, but still get to the title game.
as for the bcs bowls....whoever set these up should be whipped. teams play their tails off, and get left out because of automatic bowls for some conferences. so top ten teams will go to lesser bowls, and some crappy teams will get the good ones. but we all know why. it's not for anything other than money, so that a school gets in and gets the money to share with its fellow conference members. whacky stuff.

What would be so wrong about the SEC Champ game loser (who will have 2 conf losses) not getting in while a 1-loss Fla does? I understand UGA fans may b.itch about having beaten Fla, but they were extraordinarily fortunate to win that game.
