How long have you been watching? It was certainly better than what we had before. The BCS only got it wrong in 01 (Nebraska) and 03 (Oklahoma).

meh, I dont like it. We have an advantage when we have 3-4 weeks to prepare. That cant be denied. Yeah, we have lost before in bowl games, just last year actually, but we win, and win BIG far more often. So if we make the playoff, you can bet we will make the ship, but then its just a week prep and then game time. There goes our advantage. Im sure everyone except Bama fans think this is fricking fantastic, and to you, I say suck my weiner.

It is far worse. The only correct solution was to use the old system and simply place four teams instead of two.
Putting this in the hands of 13 people is the most idiotic thing that has ever happened in college football.
You are correct, sir!

All of this.
I keep hearing them talk about "How teams are playing at the end of the year."
What about if the team had a really rough stretch from October-mid Nov and are literally beat to hell. Of course that team will not be peaking due to injuries. Which speaking of they also keep hinting that if a qb gets hurt they will take that into account. Well an example for me to counter is when Dorsey went down in 07. The LSU D was never the same. Some players are just as important as the QB but these committee people probably won't think that way.

Plus the fact that you give a small number of people (sometimes biased and one vote counts a lot more) full control over who gets picked means there is more chance teams get left out or picked based on person reason and not football. Plus the chance they get bribed.
Besides the 4 team play off, I don't really see this new system being that much better.
They just need to hurry through this phase and get to power conferences and divisions so the games are all that decides who gets in.

People are going to realize in a few years that the BCS really wasn't all that bad.

I wish they would have kept the BCS and just make it 1-4 that gets in. simple
I mean you think the Athletic Director of Clemson or Wisconsin won't have alternative methods of voting.
Archie hates LSU. Will do anything he can to keep us out.
