re: BCS Champion should be # 1

Why would the coaches care about the potential viewing audience for the title game? I think Oswald acted alone; there's no rankings conspiracy. Rather, inane rankings have historically been the result of laziness and lack of attention (Michigan up one notch, check; Notre Dame up one notch, check, etc.) Now there are more eyes than ever on the polls, and I think those days are ending. Heck, Spurrier can't even vote for Duke anymore.
