1. I'm not Vel.

2. I was guessing on the top four. Amazingly, I got three of them right.

3. You can't possibly win. I was going for the best possible compromise I could come up with. I was offering a shot to help the sponsors and the money people getting money and a playoff system. It's not like the BCS braintrust is gonna go to the TPDub to figure out how to fix a problem they refuse to acknowledge exists.

4. I went arbitrary because the first four games (1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7, etc.) wouldn't be for bowls. It's the results of the games that set up the big 4 bowls. All teams get a bowl game, it's just a matter of who goes where. 4 winning teams play in two bowls. 4 losing teams play in two bowls. As far as diluting the importance of bowl games. Hell, they're top 4 for a reason. Why not have 2 of the top 8 teams in the country play in one of the top 4 bowl games? "Diluting the importance" is just bullshit propaganda from the guys who sponsor the top 4 games, anyway. If there's a way to keep affiliations, I'd be open to go for it. I don't want to see a lop-sided bowl game just to satisfy the affiliations.

5. Also, an Undefeated team should have to prove themselves against one of the "better" one loss teams. Case in Point: Hawaii '07. Besides, it's not like a One Loss Team could be better than an Undefeated team (This year's SEC Championship Game.) What happens on the field should matter. As far as the possibility that the top two teams facing in an earlier game, thus negating the importance of the rest of the games: More bullshit BCS propaganda. If they're that much better, they should have no problem proving it against the inferior teams.

You're an Ole Miss fan though, so understandable. Do you get dressed up in your suit and tie like the other UM fans?

Kidding. Everyone in Mississippi hates 'Bama though, it's kind of weird. I'm doing my graduate study at Mississippi State and I catch crap alllllll the time about it. My first campus visit I had a Bama shirt or hat on, can't remember, and you would have thought I was on the Auburn or Tennessee campuses. I asked them what their deal was and they said something about Bama being their rival. I think I offended them by laughing in their face.

Ole Miss on the up though. Crazy Houston Nutt might be a lunatic, but he can coach with the right people.

Anyway, good season. 12-2 during a year where we were supposed to have 9 wins tops. Not too bad. Watch out...

PS - check out my calling of Tommy Tubbs getting fired. Feels good to be a gangsta...

For such a great sport the championship series is so stupid, how is Florida considered the National Champion where as teams like USC, Utah or Texas aren't?

**The Outlaw** · 01-13-2009, 11:24 PM

Because they won the BCS National Championship game.

It is what it is.

**BCWWF** · 01-14-2009, 05:26 PM

Imo, if not the playoff, something needs to be fixed so that the Mountain West is considered a "big" conference.
