I really want Arizona to win the SB. How will anybody argue that Arizona at 9-7 is the best and legit champion when 11-5 New England beat the urine out of them and didn't get a shot in the perfect playoff system

Why wouldn't Arizona try to win more games and get the 2 seed?

I have no problem with a playoff format, whats preposterous is a system that says a one loss team is worse than another one loss team that beat them by double digits because that one loss team didnt beat their remaining opponents by enough points.


That is quite different from a playoff system.

I know. I wish OSU would have played TTU in the Fiesta, rather than UT, since TTU beat them.

Wouldnt mattered, OSU would have lost.


Tressels lost his touch and Pryor is the worst passing QB in the history of CFB.

We match up GREAT against Texas Tech.

Many people say he's further developed than VY was as a frosh, when passing's concerned. Sure you know about him. He did lead the Big 10 in passing efficiency. He just played awfully.

again, dan

you're talking out of both sides of your mouth

you criticize a system that tries to define what good teams are, and then place them in a situation to earn the title

however, you criticize teams in a similar fashion to the BCS, but by mostly subjective criteria

counselor kern = fail

All others are controversial or out right frauds.


I agree to a degree, choosing the best one (or two) loss team is totally subjective.
