Why the BCS is bad for college football.

Four teams are still alive in the NCAA basketball tournament. The basketball selection committee picked 8 teams with 1 or 2 seeds and of those 8 teams, only 2 are still playing. Of the 4 top seeded teams, 0 still have a chance to win the championship. An 11 seed, George Mason, beat a 1 seed and still might with the national championship.

That's not meant to demean the selection committee, nobody expects the selection committee to actually predict who will win the tournament. That's why they play the games.

Well, except in football. And that's why the BCS is bad for college football.

Amen.

Though people have been amening (is that a word) this for years and nothing has ever been done... why?
