re: Polls say Tigers are better, but are they?

It sure would be nice to see this concept become a reality. However, the present system does put pressure on the PAC 10 and BIG TEN to add a conference championship game. A conference championship game gives that conference an unfair advantage to jump a team from a conference who does not have one. And yes, all this maddness of the past 50 years would be settled if we had a playoff system.
