Did you miss the last drive. We play that way the entire game.

I sort of agree. However, the standard for BCS admittance is not top 10. Look at the Big East and ACC champs. BYU isn't a top 10 team but that does not mean they are not just as worthy of a BCS bid as a big east or ACC champ assuming BYU wins out of course.

Actually, if there's ever a defense of the bend but don't break philosophy, it's Utah's performance last night. Outgained by 150 yds but stopped them from scoring.

You succinctly summed up why the BCS is bad for college football. The conference champions from the ACC and Big East get an auto bid no matter how bad their teams are. It's time for a playoff.

But yet you liked the Orange Bowl, etc. pre-BCS when those conferences had auto bids and MWC was constantly shut out. |

Didn't BYU wrap up the title before New Year's Day in the Holiday Bowl?

Then Flystripper did not succintly summarize why BCS is bad for college football, in your mind. Because what he succintly summarized was why BOWLS are bad for college football and have been for decades--and you don't agree with that. |
