Like Lou Holtz said last week: remove the C from BCS, and you've got it.

The system is stupid, it was set up by trained monkeys, and it stays in place because of more trained monkeys.

The trained monkeys say it's better to have a popularity contest than to have a Champion earn it on the field. The trained monkeys say that the 5 million dollars they earn for the "National Championship Game" is more than the 25 million dollars the NFL earns for the SuperBowl.

The trained monkeys tell teams like Boise State and Hawaii, "if you are the ONLY team to go undefeated, have a perfect record, and then beat a BCS conference champion at the end, you still will NEVER be crowned Champion. So, don't bother playing this season".

F'n trained monkeys.

if all the colleges decided to just boycott those bowls and have thier own,we'd have real bowl games. it doesnt take a scientist to figure out that if u say "hey we will have hawaii and OSU playing each other but its not in a bcs bowl" that people will come in droves. just get a big enough venue and you'll be fine

I was thinking of something:

The Sugar Bowl is on the same field as the National Championship Game. Hawaii (the only unbeaten) plays in the Sugar (against Georgia) just a few days before the so-called "Championship Game".

If Hawaii beats Georgia, I'd have them stay in New Orleans that week.

Then, after the Ohio State-LSU game ends, I'd have the Hawaii team jump the rail and rush the field, and call out the winner right there, right then, with the whole f'n world watching.

See how much heart the "Champion" really has. I'd love to see a team just get punked out in front of the world. What could they do? If they refuse, the whole world will know they're scared.
