Your entire argument falls apart right here. The Bowl Coalition was extremely flawed, and that’s the reason that it was replaced by the Bowl Alliance and then finally the
BCS once they got everyone on board, and finally the college football playoff.

FWIW, the stated purpose of the Bowl Coalition was to match the teams ranked #1 and #2 in the polls in a Bowl Game. It did so using a predetermined formula. This was not a case of a “committee” making a decision. They literally took the AP and Coaches poll and essentially averaged them.

Now, keeping in mind that everyone agreed
the Bowl Coalition was a flawed system and what happened in 1993 was bad, they eventually created the CFP to fix things.

quote:
So not only was West Virginia, a major conference program, robbed of a national championship berth by a 1-loss Florida State team, they also stole a national championship from Notre Dame - a team that had beaten them head-to-head and finished second in both major polls with the same amount of losses as Florida State.

Again, you’re talking about 1993 - there were seven “major conferences”
- SEC, Big 8, SWC, ACC, Big East along with the PAC 10 and the Big 10 who were not part of the Bowl Coalition.
There is a major difference between 2
spots for 7 conferences and 4 spots for 5.

Now, are you saying that because Kannell wears a national championship ring from 1993 that he won in part due to a “flawed
system” it makes him a hypocrite today ? That’s certainly ripe for an Alabama fan that claims 735 national championships because they beat Mesopotamia Tech back in the day.

But no, pointing to a flawed result from a flawed system 30 years ago doesn’t justify a flawed result from a corrupt decision makers today.
