Simple.  This way both the #2 and #3 team in the nation have a shot at the #1 team.  The #2 team already blew it, so now the #3 team gets a shot.  The BCS should work out so well every year!

It\'s a national championship game.  So why would the 3rd best team play the 1st?

And Boz, you\'re a freaking fanboy.  Do you even go to the school?

Just like he said.  I feel the second best team in the country skill wise is Michigan but it\'s not fair to shut out a whole other conference from the game.  Michigan got their chance and now the next best in line, Florida, will.

And don\'t be so childish.  I\'m a fanboy because what he said made sense yet you called him retarded?  I haven\'t said shit about the game yet.  Is this where I insult you? Yawn

And yes I go to the school, transfered in.  I\'ve also lived in Columbus my whole life.

That "not going to the Unviersity" attack is lame. There are thousands upon thousands of fans that got to like their team because of relatives/saw them on tv/other generic reason. You didn\'t throw that argument at Shocky here, he got to like tOSU becuase of his Ohio Roots, but he doesn\'t live there nor goes to school there. What difference does it make? If they show a passion for the team and always have, what does it matter?

Oh, and uh, since I pretty much dislike Urban Meyer completley and totally, go Buckeyes.

Edit: Hahaha, god my signature blows
What do Kerry Wood, Mark Prior, Matt Clement, and Carlos Zambrano have in common?

They\'re the pieces to the next great pitching rotation of our time, what else?

GO CUBS!

Just the thought that a national championship game is the #1 vs #3 is idiotic.  OK, it\'s not retarded.  You girls win that point.  

FL has a much harder schedule than Michigan and came out with the same record.  ANd shit, FL lost because of one play that was certainly a sketchy call in anyone\'s book.  How can you possibly say without a doubt that Michigan is better than Florida when they\'ve never played?

Bah, who gives a shit.  FL will beat Ohio State and it won\'t make a bit of a difference anyway.

Just bring on the fucking playoff system.  It\'s the only way to have an undisputed champion.

And ROL, how bout them Huskers??????

lol..  My wife went to FSU.  She doesn\'t even know what their record was this year.

honestly, like 5 out of the last 6 years, the BCS system has had some controversy.  it\'s time for a 4 team playoff or returning to the original system.  at least the original system kept traditions alive and didn\'t disgrace such a glorious bowl, such as the Rose Bowl, by having 2 teams, non-pac 10 and non-big 10 play.

There will always be controversy.  If we have a four team playoff, you\'ll have team #5 which has one loss claiming it\'s as good as team #2 with one loss.  This year it\'d be Ohio State, Michigan, Florida, and LSU by the BCS standings...but LSU has two losses.  You don\'t think that would leave Louisville, Wisconsin, USC, Boise State, and hell, an Auburn team that beat two of those four teams crying foul?  You\'re gonna have controversy no matter how you do it.  Because no matter how you do it, the last team out is gonna think they shoulda been in.

The BCS has gotten it right all but three times, in my opinion.  It screwed up with FSU over Miami, Nebraska over Oregon, and Oklahoma over USC.  With the way the BCS is formatted right now, none of those mistakes would have been made.

And I\'m totally against a playoff system.  If you want playoffs, watch the NFL.  If you want a season where the playoffs start with game #1...then you can watch college football.  

And as for the Rose Bowl pitting a non Pac 10 team vs. a non Big 10 team...with the current system, that shouldn\'t be such a problem.  It\'s automatically Pac 10 vs. Big 10 unless one of those teams get into the BCS championship game, in which case the Rose Bowl has first choice to replace that team and can just go with another team from that conference.  If it\'s not Pac-10 vs. Big Ten, the only people you can blame are the Rose Bowl representatives.

I\'m not going out and trying to prove Michigan is better.  I do honestly believe they are though.  Just my opinion.

And there\'s still no way the Gators have a chance :)

Oh, and yeah, FSU sucks :)

they could easily do even 16 teams.  99% of bowl games are completely worthless.  use the shitty bowl games to be the first round of playoffs.

Which is just what college football needs: Take more away from the small conferences and give it to the large ones.  A lot of those programs in the smaller bowls struggle to make money as it is.  Do that, and watch how many schools in small conferences have to cut their football programs.

If you think the BCS is unfair, cutting the smaller bowl games to have a playoff structure would be one hundred times worse.

It\'d still end up being a financial hit for them, regardless.

Actually the conferences share the money from the bowls, so the little schools get money anyway.  At least they\'d be watched.

From what bowls?  They don\'t share the BCS money, that\'s for sure.  You only get BCS money if your conference appears in it.
