Polls and rankings not allowed. #3..........that this thought should've just stayed in my head "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of the evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee"

Unless there is only 1 undefeated team in the nation. Hearing teams with one loss, or two, claim to be champions is moronic. A champion either wins all of it's games, or wins a playoff, to me there is no other way, it's just a beauty pageant.

I acutally think the money would be greater in a playoff but it would be spread out more as well and also some bowl realignment would have to happen. IT will never happen as the BCS and the Rose Bowl contract dates run differently so there is a built in excuse to not do it as you would have to break the contract of one or the other to do it. When a midmajor or minor conference winner claims the BCS championship then you might see the powers that be move in that direction but as long as a BCS conference school wins it every year it will never change.

Duh!!! Drop one game off the schedules and don't give teams a month off before the bowls start. Play the bowl games and the four team playoff in December and play the title game on Jan 1st or 2nd. Done deal!! Easier said than done I am sure . lol Teddy

You take the 6 bcs conference champions and top 2 non-bcs conference champions/Notre Dame. And the Irish would go for it because they would not have to be 12th to get in. And you would not have to do seeding. The bowls would still have tie ins so the Rose would be happy. Then you take the 4 bcs bowl winners and do a four team playoff.

IMO it is the most logical. If they complain about too many games then just get rid of the 12th game that was added a couple years ago.

The only two conferences pushing for the plus one concept were the ACC and of course the SEC. The BCS stated that the current system in place is the best for now. The SEC commisioner was pi$$ed off because no other conference would back any kind of playoff plan. The real reason I think they don't want it is because if you take the top 4 teams where 1 plays 3 and 2 plays 4, the winners might end up being from the same conference. ( That conference would be the SEC ) Can you imagine a NC game with two SEC teams in it.

They sure in the heck were lobbying for a rematch of Michigan and Ohio State playing for the title. And the Big 10 Commissioner had no problem with that. I still think it's funny a 2 loss SEC team ran Ohio State off the field for the second straight year!!! Goooo SEC!!!!!!! Teddy
