Playoffs not withstanding the rules in currently suck! It is about money and not finding the best match ups that the fans want to see. The only way to change is for the fans to not show up! Freaking Northern Iowa in the Orange Bowl

If that were true, NIU and Louisville wouldn't be allowed within 200 miles of a BCS bowl site. NIU will bring around 8,000-10,000 fans and will get absolutely slaughtered. The Orange Bowl might lose money this year. Louisville will bring more fans, but it'll be like Cincinnati in the 2009 Sugar Bowl. Their fans were happy to be there but know they're gonna get demolished (wild card is Teddy Bridgewater...if he plays out of his mind they have a shot).

Doesn't help. The Stanford/VT Orange Bowl had about 5000 people in stands and the rules are still in place. And it's Northern Illinois, not Northern Iowa. You'll learn that when FSU has a 41-3 halftime lead on them. They're worse than the Hawaii team that we steamrolled in Sugar Bowl

When are the Carnival Barkers (aka bowl hosts) gonna be shown the door. It's not even a joke anymore. It's just fat bald dudes swapping envelopes of hunerds.

This part is accurate.

This would do very little because they make more money per TV viewer than they do with asses in the seats... NFL fans have been trying this tactic for years. You'd need people to not tune in and watch or show up... unlikely because of the fact that these games have very little in the way of TV competition, at least for sports fans.

All the BCS has done over the last two years is incentivize playing the best football you can, while coming in 2nd place in your division. Utter nonsense.
