There is no doubt in my mind that Okla State, with its high powered offense, could beat either Alabama or LSU, and both of those schools know it, which is why things were manipulated to insure that neither of them had to face OSU. What a crock. PLAYOFF SYSTEM NOW!!!! PS.

State, who IS a conference champion, Makes absolutly no sense. Alabama had its chance to win it's own conference, and lost. End of story. LSU took it. Bama should have to wait until next year for another shot. OSU earned theirs by dominating their conference, albiet one loss. Just goes to show what a sham the BCS has become, and it is owned by the SEC. And that, my friends is the absolute argument for a playoff system.

Don't you get it? The Rose Bowl, the granddady of them all. Steeped in tradition. Always the Pac 8 then the Pac 10 winner against the winner of the Big 10. Always the streets of Pasadena filled with fans from some place on the west coast cheering for our team. But now the BCS (badly conceived system) steps in and sends a Texas team to play in Rose Bowl and you send Stanford somewhere else? If we disliked you before, you have just added fuel to the fire. The west coast fans will not even be watching the Rose Bowl, their one and only bowl game, this year. Who cares about it if a Pac 10 team is not playing? Don't mess with tradition and leave us the heck alone. I know my letter is too little too late, but I am seething over the fact that Stanford is not going to the Rose Bowl. Don’t you get it?

We might have yet another BCS disaster at the end of this week, and these idiots keep spewing this kind of garbage.

Until there is a playoff structure we will not have a true champion... much like the initial BCS rankings this year... Florida at number 1 is a joke... yeah they are a good team, but with the pathetic way they played Arkansas and the multitude of questionable calls in their favor in that game, They SHOULD NOT be ranked #1 let alone in the top 5. The BCS should at least be rename to the PCS...Political Championship Series... because at this point that's all it is... politics... and thus there is no true champion. I agree.
