If this year isn't enough then what more proof do you need. For God's sake someone please blow up the BCS. It is the only system in sports, professional or collegiate, that doesn't produce a true national champion. A dominant one loss USC is left out of the title picture, Texas beats one of the teams that are in the so called "national title" game but gets left out, and Utah goes undefeated and yet doesn't even get a sniff of the national title. The system is beyond broken, it is fataly flawed. We need a playoff. If congress can step in and put steroid testing into Major League Baseball then goddamnit they can take the President of The United States's lead and put a playoff into college football.

13-0 and No Title?

Didn't Obama mention something about trying to reform this?
College athletics is just a moneymaking scheme, anyway. Whatever they need to do to turn the biggest profit is fine by me.
Yes Matt, in Obama's first interview post election he vouched heavily for the 8 team playoff. I think 8 teams is the only way to go. No automatic in for winning your conference, just take the top 8 teams and play for a true national champion. There's about an 8 week layoff from the last game of the season to the day of the National Title game so there's plenty of time for a playoff.
