Perhaps instead of relying on the BCS to give what it deems the "Best 2 teams" it can give us the six most worthy conference champions, and two at large bids. That way a team as good as Alabama was would have a chance for redemption, (as an at large entry that didn't win its conference) but they would have to earn their way back into NC contention by running the playoff gauntlet, instead of being gifted the opportunity to play in the Championship Game by the BCS.

An 8-4 Champion seems very unlikely, but then again the BCS has already seen a team with 2 losses win the BCSCG, so who knows?

I prefer a system that would allow you to "play your way in" instead of relying on subjective criteria to figure out how good you are.

This is the scenario that most people want to happen. Too bad the Jim Delanys of the world don't really care what the fans (and coaches) want.

So 10-2 Oregon should have gone to a playoff over Stanford? Yep they beat them head to head but they had 2 in the L column, and Stanford had a 1. So one game didn't matter. Why was it played?

So, 119 game schedule ftw. Or cancel the sport
