I had a feeling Oklahoma would beat Missouri but I never thought West Virginia would lose to Pitt. Well you know the standings are gonna come out something really unexpected or DUMB I hate the BCS format. You can't spell BCS without BS!

Go Bucks.

Is the selection show today?

Brian Damage · 12-02-2007, 12:05 PM

It should be the Buckeyes and MAYBE Georgia. Who the heck knows at this point. lol

theshark8777 · 12-02-2007, 12:09 PM

Yeah, really who knows- lol. I don't see it being Georgia tho. I wouldn't be surprised if it is LSU or VT.

I'm calling it right now: Ohio State vs. LSU. (Unless they find a way to weasel USC in there)

You know, for all the talk of parity this season, the national title's AGAIN going to come down to 2 of the same ole teams - just because humans don't like to try things new and different. Eeesh.

Playoffs NOW.

Hawaii and LSU deserve it the most. LSU has 2 losses but both in 3OT. It will be Ohio State and LSU I bet.

Hawaii? How many good teams did they play?
Hawaii deserves a BCS berth, but a championship game?

Let me just say, in Hawaii's defense, that they are undefeated. I believe they are the only undefeated Division I team.

.....Let's assume Hawaii DOES get a BCS bid. Not a title bid, obviously, but a BCS bid. We'll just use Oklahoma, as they're the right team for this example - as their opponents. I have no idea how it'd actually work out, but let's just go with Hawaii vs. Oklahoma. Hawaii beats Oklahoma. This leads into a situation where, you've now had 2 years in a row teams in the top 10/top 12 from non-traditional schools, a team who's been accused of a softball schedule, beating up on an established power.

If that doesn't call for a playoff system (Division I-AA (or whatever they call themselves now) uses a *huge* playoff system, to no ill effect. Don't kid yourself, this isn't about academics or time constraints, it's about money)
