Back to square one. Its a mess. It should go something like this: Regular season BCS used to determine 8 teams in the playoff (yes the moaning for the 8th spot will be heard). The regular season should count; the playoffs determine who the best team is at the end of the season. Its like this in almost every other sport. But its not gonna happen... and its sad. |

I am not an Illinois fan, but I had them on the radar real early in the year(kinda a redboard but my friends could confirm). Zook has done some amazing recruiting things there, which I thought would be impossible. Next year they will win the Big Ten as long as no serious injuries, they are a very young team this year and have progressed like a well coached team does |

I think the best team in the nation right now is USC. So they should go because I say they are the best now. This is what we got now... anyone present your case for another team. It is fun. |

![]() OU -- their 2 losses came on the road. Big 12 champs.
I know a loss is a loss, but since we are evaluating 2 loss teams, shouldn't a loss at home against an unranked team be a worse loss than on the road? |

For what it's worth, there shouldn't be any pre-season polls that weigh in the BCS formula. How can you rank a team in such an important structure that hasn't played a game yet? At least in college hoops there is a long enough season AND a tournament that invites 64 so there is usually a fair mix. But with a 10-12 game season, no tournament and a pre-season ranking that unfairly sets the table, I'm not sure how you can get a true "playoff" or bowl structure for football.

Not as bad because the best two teams will presumably be in the playoff. Agree. There is no way a playoff system could be as unfair as what we got now. Even if a child puts it together. |

There isn't another sport's evaluation/ranking/standings that depends more on a non-participant's opinion that college football. Well, that I know of. We all know what really matters to University Chancellors, ADs, etc...$$$.. and to have most teams inactive for 4-6 weeks..ie..not playing in a game that can generate revenue, is pretty hypocritical to those who whine about their team's ranking
