OK, it's a deal! Ah, but I wasn't clear in that wording... I meant the #7th (or worst) ranked team amongst conference champions. That's why I...
I don't know what the details are, but the computer stuff just makes up part of the BCS, and I'm not opposed to seeing if the BCS rankings can be...
I can see that point of view. But I think that by making the debate center around who the 4th or 6th best team is, versus who the second-best...
I came up with another take/angle on the matter... Let's assume that we wind up with Ohio State undefeated, along with a bunch of quality...
My point is that it can't be decided on the field, not with 119 teams in the same division, and teams only playing 12 games a season. It's just...
Well, like I said, I'd start with a 4-team playoff, and see how it works... a 4-team playoff is a less drastic change from a 2-team playoff we...
That would work, and would be superior to the 2-team system we have now, but I don't really like having non-conference champions making it. Cut it...
Here is how i rank the the various systems we've either seen or has been previously discussed (with 1 being the worst, and 5 being the best):...
For me personally, my experience is that the really big bowls, especially with a lot on the line, have fewer tickets available than people willing...
You're leaving out the part where you have to win your conference championship, and each conference would need to have a conference championship...
And just to back up my statement about calling the current BCS system a de facto playoff system:
Before the BCS, there was no guarantee that #1 would play #2. Now we have such a guarantee, via a 2-team/one game format - I know people don't...
Like I already said, you take the 4 highest ranked teams that won their conference championship games. If, after 5 years, it's decided that 4...
Well, the current system is just a 2-team playoff now, right? #1 vs. #2. A 4 or 6 team playoff just gives the conferences a much better chance of...
First, has the ACC added in a championship game yet? I know the PAC-10 hasn't. Until they do, they would be excluded from my playoff system, so...
OK, try to poke some holes in my playoff system... First rule is this - if you don't win your conference, you don't make the 4-team playoff...
I agree with this... and it's not even because of how challenging it is to win in an away game against some of these teams - it makes the home...
What team from the West is lucky enough to play Vanderbilt every year, and what team in the East is lucky enough to play Miss. State?
Why would the significance of the smaller bowls be any more diminished than they are now, with the current BCS #1 v. #2 playoff system? With the...
Now if you can explain it to me so that it makes sense to me, I'd appreciate it... :D
