The BCS Sucks

As if we needed further evidence that college football needs a playoff system, more proof has been given in thes past four BCS games. For one thing, there are two good teams who lost early in the season that could playing with anyone in the country (UGA and USC). Secondly, we have learned how truly meaningless bowl games are, by watching V-Tech and OU not even show up to theirs and get handled by motivated teams who rarely have chances to play in big games.

Whom BCS games aren’t meaningless to are Bill Stewart and WVU. The team plays one motivated game, and now some no-named assistant coach has a five year deal to coach at a major university. Congratulations WVU, you just let your emotions set you seven years back. But thankfully, you play in the Big East and people are fulling into thinking that it’s a great conference because other teams like Rutgers and USF finish with two losses after playing nobody, so there is a chance that WVU can still run the table every year.

Despite all my hatred for the current system, I do anticipate a great National Championship. OSU is undeserving of it, but 75% of the time the team undeserving of being there wins it, using the negative press as motivation. Also, this could be OSU’s first clean BCS National Championship, without crooked referees in control, and that’s always something extra to play for.
