What about this?

Since CF is hell bent on having a flawed system over a play-off, what about this way:

 

All major (and minor conferences) resume their bowl ties with one exception, for regional reasons, Big 12 ties with the Fiesta Bowl and ACC ties with the Orange. SEC goes back to Sugar, Pac 10 and Big 10 go with Rose. For that matter, the rest of the bowls strike the best deal they can get.

 

Now, they continue to have a composite ranking based on computer and voters. If they really wanted to make it more fair, they'd give the computers more say since the voters suck. There's no way they can see enough games to give a fair vote unless they had a much smaller panel and gave them enough time before voting to see more of the games on tape. Also, no rankings prior to week 6.

 

At anyrate, regardless of exactly how you come up with the rankings. The #1 plays at whatever bowl their conference is tied to against the #2. The next highest ranked team (not league runner up) takes their place in their bowl game and everything else stays exactly the same. Thus, there is exactly one and only one team playing outside their normal bowl game unless the two teams are Pac 10 Big 10 or it's another conference team vs. an independent. Then nobody has to move at all.

 

The major confrences still get their money, 'cause the big 4 still have to pay plenty in their contracts because every year the NC is going to be played at one of them, you just don't know which. The bowls themselves will still make money even if they catch a dry spell for a while 'cause fans from the top teams will still travel. As long as ABC still shows all four, they're going to buy them as a package, so it doesn't matter, all four can pay the same every year in TV $$ regardless of which is the NC.

I really want to see a playoff. My theory has always been to take the final 8 teams ranked in the polls.

 

Use 3 intermediate bowls and 1 major bowl as the first round games.

 

In the semifinals, use 2 of the 4 Major Bowls. In the championship game, use the remaining major bowl.

 

You then rotate the 4 major bowls every year.

You already have a playoff... regular season... That is why college football is so great.

Well Auburn went unbeaten in the SEC, how did the reg season work out for them. This is a lame comment. Even though I think the BCS got it right, for the 2 best teams, a true playoff would be better by far

And with your Homer insight at work thinking the BCS got it right this year, your probably the only one in the country that feels like they got in right last year as well :D

 

 

Gimmie a BREAK, if it were any other team other than OU, you would be saying what the rest of the nation is saying that Auburn should be playing, just like USC should have went last year. It is only your lopsided view that allows your brain not to understand the Auburn in a better team this year as USC was last.............Those are the facts, as proved last season and will again this year.
