    ALL WILL BE SOLVED WITH A FUCKING TOURNAMENT TO END THE SEASON LIKE COLLEGE BASKETBALL!!

    Why don't they pick up on this I have no idea instead of letting a computer decide who's the best.
    While I do think that some kind of BCS-tounament hybrid will help, it's still not the savior of the college football post season that so many people think it will be. When you have 119 teams (I think that's the right number) that don't all play eachother, you're going to run into the same problems setting up a tournament that you will with setting up a bowl game. Someone is going to get left out.

    its suppose to put the best, highest scoring with givin the least amount of points up. longest drives, and what not. doesn't work the way it should though. the BCS is all kinds of fucked up, but unfortunately, the BCS standings are the only ones that matter. AP polls only matter when the BCS isn't up. cause you look at them now, Utah is #2 on the BCS and 4th in the AP. and USC is ranked #2 in AP and #3 in BCS.

    its seriously all kinds of fucked up.
    this explains how the BCS is setup. read it, and you will know why its the way it is.

    Oh I'm not saying that it doesn't have it's flaws. There is definitely room for improvement in the system. I'm just saying that a tournament system is not without it's flaws either, largely, because it will still have to rely on some sort of ranking system (not to mention further extending the season for the non-professionals, aka students, that play in them). There is simply no way you can decide what the number one team out of 119 is without some sort of ranking system.

    I'd like to see some sort of small tounament, 6 or 8 teams, to decide the national champion. I'm just saying it's not the be-all end-all solution of college football controversy.

    its how they try to do it now. during the season with the conference games. who stays on top, who wins/loses and points/game and points/given up.
    its why florida went from 4th to like 13th after they took the loss to ol miss. i don't know, i don't think they will ever figure a system out that will eliminate the cause of error. there are just way too many factors in it to determine on who goes and who stays. and no matter who is chosen someone is gonna not like it.
    and there's not really anything anyone can do or say about it that will change it. i'm sure all the longhorn, raiders, buckeyes, penn state, etc fans are all saying their team should've went over OU.

    other the flip side.....i have noticed a fucking shit load of people are buying up gator stuff. like i just got back from reporting and i seen some bitch come out with like 4 bags of nothing but gator shit from a store.
    bitch needs to quit being a bandwagoneer and stick with a team. not stick with the team that just happens to be the top in the nation right now....and then root for another team that could beat them next season.
    nothing else pisses me off that those fucking wagoneers man.....
