No we do not. You're interpretation is citing the means to the end as the ultimate end. Mine is not.

The object of the BCS is to decide which team is the best in college football and do it fairly. It does that by ranking teams, and the two best are to face off on the field (now wait for it...)

TO DECIDE WHO IS BEST

That's happened already between Alabama and LSU. Give someone else a chance.


So if I understand you correctly, if two teams met in the regular season, they shouldn't play each other in the BCSNCG?

He's right. At least with 2 teams from the same conference. tOSU and Michigan were #1 and #2 in the regular season when they played each other in the last game of the season.

There was no rematch a month later in the BCS NG. The voters took another team that was doing great (Florida) and put them in the BCS NG.
