| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00  | The following are the Bowl Championship Series college football ratings: (Through games of November 24) 1. Miami 2.92 2. Florida 6.95 3. Texas 8.77 4. Nebraska 10.48 5. Oregon 10.87 6. Tennessee 11.87 7. Colorado 18.06 8. Illinois 20.45 After today, how the fuck do you diagram all of this. To steal a line from Lewis Black, you take a pencil, sharpen it, and stick it right in your temple. I was hoping that Chris Simms and Texas could somehow make it to the championship game, but Chris had the worst game of his career. I feel really bad for hjim, but he'll be back next year, better than ever. Major almost bailed them out, and that game turned into one of the most exciting games ive ever seen. Miami almost blew it, and shouldve, against Va. Tech, Florida lost to Tennessee, and Oregon barely won. The Heismann race also got very clouded, as NONE of the favorites really had a good game, except for Grossman, who lost. I really dont know who id give it to, probably Crouch because he has the best stuff (it wasnt Crouch's fault that Colorado scored 62). I am rooting for LSU to win next week to prove once and for all that the BCS is a joke so that they can get rid of the whole system and install a new playoff system. Because if Tenn. loses, Nebraska will be in, and they dont deserve it at all. Fan of the Giants and the Rangers. Hater of the rest of the NFC East and the Devils. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | just think how fucking great a playoff system would be. take the top 8 teams in the bcs and do a 3 week playoff. I mean, imagine the games if the season ended today: 1. Miami vs. 8. Illinois 2. Florida vs. 7. Colorado 3. Texas vs. 6. Tennessee 4. Nebraska vs. 5. Oregon how fucking sweet would that be?? i'd watch all those games, wouldn't you? a playoff system would create some of the most fun football for the fans ever.  The more they stay the same, the more I go insane. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Mar. 01 | Anything at all based on a who-beat-who scenario is bound to be open to a Nebraska-esque glitch. The prime example is college hoops- every year, you can take the NCAA champ or the #1 team, and build a scenario that has Yale or Prairie View as the best team in the land. ie- Yale beat Brown who beat Providence, etc... A solid playoff would work. Take the BCS and maybe give a selection committee discretion for the eight and maybe seventh slot. Thank you for being a friend.

| Psychopath Registered: Sep. 01 | Although Colorado (10-2) finished ahead of Nebraska (11-1) in both the Associated Press and USA Today/ESPN coaches polls and routed the Cornhuskers 62-36 three weeks ago, it wasn't enough. Nebraska barely edged Colorado for the No. 2 spot in the final Bowl Championship Series standings. Miami was first with 2.62 points, Nebraska second with 7.23 points, Colorado third at 7.28 and Oregon fourth with 8.67. 0.05 decided who got to play for the natoinal championship. That is pathetic. Hopefully we'll get split national champions this year to help the fools at NCAA to realize how stupid this is. Even a 4-team playoff is acceptable compared to having .000005 decide it!  GodBlessAmerica. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Aug. 01 | last year, because I hate Miami, I didn't call College Football a fraud sport. They did get screwed though. This year is even worse. I hope Colorado smokes Oregon (the better of the 2 games) and Nebraska edges Miami so there won't be a true national champion. There is really no reason to watch college football until they get a play off system. All the great games this year, especially the last two months aren't worth shit. College football and the BCS are a sham. "Somebody took my phone number and called Afghanistan. Afghanistan! I've never talked to anyone in Afghanistan, I don't know nobody in Afghanistan, and even if did know anyone, I wouldn't talk to that Afghan ass for three hours! I won't talk to my daddy for three hours." | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | Good, Im glad this happened. Then maybe they will finally wake up and get rid of this BCS crap. Wake up and play some playoffs. But that would make too much sense so it will never happen.  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | it's topical i thought oregon was ranked 2nd. and doesn't their win today give them some kind of a claim to the title? how many years do you think it will be until they figure this shit out? also, while i was watching the gator bowl today (go noles) they mentioned that in all fairness syracuse should've been in it, but va tech brings in more ticket buyers so they were picked. i know i'm not the only one who has a problem with this.  need me? try: [email protected] | ||||
| TeenWeek what's a status? | posted on 01-02-2002 @ 7:12 AM | | |||
| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Oregon only gets a share of the title (Associated Press version of it) if Nebraska beats Miami. Miami was the only undefeated team, so they will win outright if they beat Nebrasjka. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | quote: What do you expect from a system that lives off corporate sponsors? It's because of Tostitos, galleryfurniture.com, etc that there is no playoff system. For that reason, as well as the fact that none of these games mean anything, I refuse to watch any of these games.  You tell me that I'm better, You just hate yourself You tell me that you like her, You just wish you did You tell me that I make no difference, Well at least I'm fucking trying What the fuck have you done?
