re: Debunking the myth of BCS "matches two 'best' teams in the country" (semi-long)

why does alabama have to defend this? it's the bcs system that every team that has a chance to be in the bcsng signed onto.

we're in the game, your team is in the game. it's how the system worked out. it has seemed to work in favor of the sec in most years, even when the rest of the country might not have agreed.

Everybody nationwide keeps saying the BCS was designed "to match the two best teams" in a winner-take all national title scenario.

I couldn't agree less.

From the BCS official website:

It is designed to ensure that the two top-rated teams in the country meet in the national championship game

Where is the confusion exactly?

Not at all. Like I said, the BCSNG is a winner-take-all scenario, and I like that it is.

Point of the whole thing was what determines "best" teams.

the BCS is not supposed to match the two best teams, it is the two top ranked teams, this whole garbage about the 2 best teams is shite started by Craig Im a fig James

Ohhhh so the two top ranked teams doesn't mean the two best teams

Not sure if serious.

what determines the two top ranked teams is the bcs system of voters and computers---the bcs system that was signed on the dotted line by your school and every other school that is given a chance to play in the bcsncg.

You poor bastards are scared to death. Greatest season ever is in major jeopardy.

Thanks for visiting the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) official website. The BCS is one of the most successful events in the history of college football, yet it is often misunderstood. We hope the information on this site will help answer your questions and give you an accurate picture of what the BCS is and isn't.

The BCS is a five-game showcase of college football. It is designed to ensure that the two top-rated teams in the country meet in the national championship game, and to create exciting and competitive matchups among eight other highly regarded teams in four other bowl games. For more on the background of the BCS, click here.

It has been undeniably successful in achieving those goals. Thanks to the BCS, the top two teams have played each other 12 times in 12 years by BCS measurements and nine times in the last 12 according to the AP poll -- including the last six years in a row. Additionally, it has provided more access to the major bowls for all eleven conferences, more television exposure, and more postseason revenue than ever before.

This site is a resource for college football fans, media and others interested in how the system works. Check here often for news about the BCS and the schools, conferences and bowls.

no shite we did! you cant see past the fact that I said anything related to Bama to understand anything else.

Thread is about how the BCS operates today was not by its original design, which was to base postseason match-ups (National Champ. being its focus) solely off of that season's results rather than a historical perception of a program.

trust me LSU players are laughing at Bama now they wanted them from the start.

This is pitiful. Next thing you know you dumb fricks are gonna be arguing over the meaning of the word "is" like Bill fricking Clinton. Only difference is at least he got laid in the Oval Office.

It's over. Deal with it. Nobody besides T Boone Pickens and some retarded Pokes from Oklahoma give 2 shits in a piss pot about it at this point, and they arent in the SEC so there is no need to clutter up the SEC Rant with this BS.
