re: Why not in favor of playoff.

A playoff system with the current power hierarchy in college football would be a disaster. To have a fair playoff, you would have to rearrange the conferences and take away a lot of their power. That will not happen in our lifetime. I think the best we can hope for with the powers that be would be some kind of +1 format.
The thing people need to do is forget about the idea of the "best team" winning the championship. A playoff would not ensure that.

You have to love the level of excitement the BCS gives college football. I think at most a four team playoff is called for, but anything more than that and it is pointless. Every football team should be thinking if we lose this game were done, and thy should play like that. The BCS has done a pretty good job picking the Championship game since the blew it in 2004.
2005- texas v usc was the right choice
2006- Ohio state v Florida was the right choice
2007- LSU vs Ohio State was the right call
2008- Florida vs OU was the right call
Texas's argument is pointless, because if they should be in the championship because they beat OU, then Texas tech should be in because they beat texas, and OU should be in it because the beat Texas Tech. Kinda circular. And then Texas goes out and pulls of a close win over the perennial punching bag Ohio State.
