What can be done to fix the BCS?

8 team playoff in three weeks.  \n\nBut, with the system now, why should you play for the championship if you can't even beat the teams in your conference? I think the winner of the SEC will play OSU or U of M for the championship come January.

Any way you structure it will still be criticized, I think the most exciting whould be an 8 team tourney (the eight BCS teams) but who knows. BCS is a crock of crap. It would help alot if you had large schools play large schools out of conference. More ohio state v. Texas and ND vs USC match ups, that would lead to less unbeaten teams.

they didn't have to beat usc in the opener, they just needed to not get killed by them. the razorbacks are certainly deserving of alot of respect although they didn't exactly put a woopin on steve spurrier's crew.\nit is also common for the polls to be flat out wrong, even in this day and age of the bcs. and there's no more quantifiable strength of schedule component in the system so that messes things up for sure too.\nthere are still 2, maybe even 3 very losable games left on the hogs schedule, without having to mention it. \ngood luck and go sec football!

As far as Wisconsin getting to the Rose Bowl, it is not possible because a conference can only have 2 teams in the BCS.  I'm not sure what they would do if Michigan were to beat OSU in the champioship game, but i don't think we'll have to worry about that.

Anybody can make a case but we can make the best case\n\nMichigan lost to the number 1 team in country on the road by 3 points.\n\nUSC lost to an unranked team!\n\nNotre Dame....well we crushed them at south bend\n\nArkasnas is too far back in the BCS rankings\n\nFlorida is the only team I can see that should be there other than Michigan. They beat to Auburn which was undeafeted at the moment.But I'm sure that if you put up Michigan vs. Florida.\nWell you know who wins

Without a doubt! This year screams for a playoff system. You have no less than six teams who could win it all. Keep the bowl system and make the BCS bowls a playoff. Two many teams are gonna get shafted this year with only two teams having the chance to win it all. I for one would love to see OSU, Mich, USC, Notre Dame, Florida, and maybe Ark, ACC winner, or Big 12 winner actually have to win a couple of games in the "postseason" to EARN  a championship in NCAA football. To tell the fans that only two teams are worthy of the championship when there are over 100 div 1 football teams is crazy. March Madness needs to to be brought to DEC/JAN in the form of a six or eight team playoff system.

Ah the BCS issues again. The simplest answer is this: The only loss that notre dame has suffered this season has been to #2 michigan. In a sense, notre dame has played a perfect season since the game against michigan, that is the reason why. Arkansas may have played the tougher schedule, but they lost to USC. Arkansas has only had 2 big wins this entire season - tenesse and auburn. Notre Dame has only had 2 as well, but in the end it all comes down to one thing- The terrible BCS system. If you ask me, Arkansas is number 4 in the country, but hey, what do i know?

Football? Basketball? Baseball? Two of the three? All 3?\n\nMy guess (right now) would be that neither will ever be a dynasty because neither is in a major, BCS-type of conference. As a society, we seem far too enamored with "tradition" to allow for further development of "new" powers unless those powers arise from a major conference. That's why the BCS is loaded toward the "big 6" conferences and single-school Notre Dame, and the NCAA hoops tournament occasionally tries to keep out the 27-5 small/mid-major schools. It's as if they got together and said "We're done," and now they need to maintain whatever has become a tradition at this point. It's really strange.

They got screwed because a maximum of 2 teams from each conference can make a BCS bowl.  As Ohio State and Michigan get the BCS bowls, Wisconsin had to settle for the Capitol One bowl, which they won last year.

Yes I think it's retarded too!  You are not alone!  :)  I think people think after all the hype it should carry over the NC, but I would be very opposed to an intra-conference NC.  It won't happen this year anyway.  Too much pressure is on the BCS to have a playoff system.  Having 2 teams from the same conference would be anti-playoff.  Anyway, I think both OSU and Mich are both getting pretty tired.  I bet the game is a big let down to watch. The movers and the shakers in the polls are the ones to watch.

He does have a case - they have the same record as USC and Michigan, plus play in a good conference.  Shouldn't they have the same chance as them to play for the title.  Just another reason the BCS sucks and they need to go to a playoff system.

I'm an Aggie and as much as I hate to say it, it looks right now as if they do. Fran needs to make some big adjustments on defense and maybe the Ags can pull it off.

They still have an outside shot, but they are depending on things they can't control.  For them to make the BCS Championship game, they have to have several things happen.  They have to win out, and win the Big XII Championship.  Louisville must lose a game, or at least come really close to losing in all of their remaining games, as to make their BCS average go down.  I really think Florida has to lose another game as well for Texas to jump them.  Another thing that would really help Texas is if Nebraska wins out to win the Big XII North, that way when Texas plays them for the Big XII championship, Nebraska will have as good as a BCS average as possible.  That would help Texas's chances the most.\n\nHook'em!!!!!\n\nTrue, the computer rankings of the BCS score don't take into account margin of victory, but the human polls part of it does-the Coach's Poll as well as the Harris Poll.

The best thing would be if come the end of season noone but Ohio StateORMichigan and Rutgers  were left undefeated. and everyone else had like 2 losses and ild like to see how they would excuse not putting Rutgers in the title game and instead putting a 2 loss team in there instead LMAO... THAT would be worth the price of admission, watching the BCS computers explode LMAO..  \n\nRutgers?! does not compute! does not compute!! *smoke* *Boom!* LOL

Without a doubt! Many deserving teams will get shut out. For example, Wisconsin, who is currently 8th in the BCS cannot play in a BCS game because a conference can only bring a max of 2 teams. What a shame. Also, with so much league inparity, the thought of Lousiville or Rutgers going to the "championship game" base solely on record and a computer score is scary. Let them play it out!!!

I hate the BCS...I'm not sure, but it shouldn't be UofM. They had their chance.

Anything would be better then the BCS system.  Right now there are many teams that could win the national championship but wont even get to play for a chance.  Atleast with a playoff system you could have more games and be sure the right team makes the finals.
