BCS…..Best

BCS…..Best Game. Supposedly the BCS Championship game should be the BEST  college game  of the year.  But as usual it turned out to be a ho-zzzz-hummer.  Very one sided.  And as is the usual case it appeared one of the teams forgot to show up.  (Or partied too hard).  Wasn’t there just one touchdown scored? I  did not watch all the BCS games.  But I did watch several. Of all the ones I did watch I would have to state MY PICK would have  to be The OREGON DUCKS and  WISCONSIN BADGERS.  This game has plenty of action.  Defensive, Offensive.  Much scoring. Great plays.   Real sportsmanship.  Lead Changes.  Strategy. Long runs.  Long passes. Much scoring.   What more could you ask for in a game.  There was only two real mistakes, which I though altered the game.  Unfortunately  for the BADGERS,  THEY committed both in the last few minutes of the game.  First, I can’t remember the man carrying the ball, however the ball carrier had gained the first down running down the sideline.  The problem was; he failed to properly protect the ball.  He had it hanging down as if it was a bucket with a handle, thus allowing the “Quack,Quack”  Ducks to strip the ball loose.  Result DUCK  BALL. The next was a coaches call.  To Spike the ball with 2 seconds to go?          What was that all about?  Granted the referee did clearly start the clock before the snap.  BUT!!!! Two (2) seconds.  Makes no sense to me.  If you know what was to be gained by this spike call….Please let me know. I know there were several records set during the course of the game.  MOST points in a quarter, MOST points in a half.  LONGEST run for a TD.  Probably MOST points scored in a game.  All this from theGRANDDADDY of BOWL GAMES.  Not to mention the parade.  Did the Alabama Vs LSU game have it’s own parade.  I must have missed it. So the good old BCS didn’t let us down.  It was it’s usual lackluster showing. For my part I would rather watch teams like OREGON, and WISCONSIN, play anytime.

Re: BCS Football Rankings

BCS Football Rankings mean NOTHING. I don’t know why people put so much emphasis on the BCS rankings.  I’m not sure how they come up with their basis for rankings.   I think they just pick their favorite teams.  Maybe not so much now as it used to be.  I remember one year when the Badgers of Wisconsin won more games against ranked teams than any of the Florida teams even played.  But the Florida teams one was BCS ranked 1 st and another in the top 3 and Wisconsin further down the line.  Granted the Florida teams put more points on the board.  But somewhere you have to take into consideration the competition played.   The Florida teams played a lesser difficult schedule and was able to run up scores and win by 20 points or more.  But Wisconsin played more ranked schools and won by smaller margins.  I don’t remember the year. BCS should be banished.  A tournament should be set up.  It should go something like this.  Each Conference Champion should be in.  There should be an at large bid for Independents in each region.  Single elimination.  Because there is approximately 5 weeks between the last regular season game and the bowl games,  They would have time to play these games.  Result would be a true National Champion. Second option would be. Play bowl (using either AP Poll or Coaches Poll games earlier and advance winners.  I know this would cause some traditional bowl games to change their date that may be go back nearly a hundred years.  But we would have a truer National Champion, than we now have.  BCS is not the way to go.  Never has been and never will be.  For the sake of College Football.  I say BOOT BCS.
