BCS

For this blog I decided to be less political and less idealistic. Instead of trying to change the world, let's start small. Let's change the BCS. As it is right now the top two teams play for the championship, and the others get shafted. Both of the teams this year are one loss teams, both of the teams have scored more than 600 points, but the problem is there are 4 other teams with the same credentials. The BCS is completely off point by saying that there are two "better" teams. This is politics at its finest. Florida and Oklahoma are great teams, and they have the biggest followings. Their fans are known to travel all over the country, bringing millions of dollars with them. There are game time local economy "booms" when these fans enter the college communities. So the BCS chose the two teams that would make the BCS the most money. Additionally, these colleges are some of the largest in the nation with the most viewers. So ratings would sky rocket. These teams are way sexier than say the underfeated Boise State University Bucking Broncos. Even though BSU is undefeated, even though Texas Tech has potentially two top draft picks at qb and rb. The BCS no longer works.

Coaches tell their players to play hard and to win everygame. That's exactly what Boise State did, their players played hard, they won every game they were asked to. Yet Boise State is playing in the Poinsetta Bowl. The Poinsetta Bowl! That's a joke.

We need to install a playoff system. The coaches are so old and need their power. SO let them rank the colleges. Same as now. The top 8 rankings will play in a playoff system. This would allow the outsiders like Boise State and Utah to have a chance to not only get national coverage, but also to have a chance to win. This 8 team playoff would allow other teams to share the lime light for atleast a game. Let's follow Barack Obama's lead and create this system!
