In lieu of last nights embarrassment, try this on...

BCS NC Game- BCS#1 vs BCS #2. Must be Conference Champs to play. (Sorry Bama fans, there has to be a reward for winning your championship)

The 4 next Top ranked conference champs go one each to the Rose, Fiesta, Orange and Sugar.

Next four spots go to the next 4 ranked BCS teams, regardless of conference affiliation, avoid Same Conference if possible, try to keep geographical alignment.

This year would've looked something like this:
BCS NC- LSU vs OK State
Rose- Oregon vs Boise St
Fiesta- TCU vs Stanford
Sugar- Wisconsin vs Arkansas
Orange- Clemson vs Bama

Right? Wrong? I think the problem is the "Automatic Bids." And conference championships should count for something, IMO.

Conference champs gives you a shiny conference trophy, that's it. There should be no restrictions on 1 vs 2.

Why would the Sugar Bowl give up selecting Alabama? Who do you keep out West Virginia? How do you place a non-AQ team that didn't win their own conference?

I would DEFINITELY not allow 2 loss teams in the game.

This should already be a rule.

So, if all the conference champs have three losses, one of them still gets to go over a one-loss non-champ? What if there had been a three-way tie for a division, are the people who lose the tiebreaker completely out of the running for the BCS championship?

The idea of being Conference Champions to qualify is ignorant. No offense, but it is. The national title game should always be between the two BEST, you have to look at how they performed, and use the eye test. Sometimes, like this year, the two best teams are in the same conference. The idea of a National Title game was always about the two BEST.

I would have rather seen Bama vs Wiscy than I had Clemson.

AQ will be dropped after next year, otherwise the BCS system is perfect.

I am beginning to dislike Gumps more and more with every passing day.

it doesn't matter if the bcs reorganizes, goes to a playoff system or to your scenario, there will always be exeptions to the rule and ALWAYS be people/fans/teams/coaches whining about process & who makes it to the game.

there is no perfect way of determining who plays for the nc.

Rose- Pac 12 Champions vs
Fiesta- Big East Champions vs
Sugar- SEC Champions vs
Orange- ACC National Champions vs
Cotton- Big 12 National Champions vs
(New Bowl in Colts stadium)- Big 10 National Champions vs


The next 5 highest seeds play in the games, according to lowest/highest seed. (ex. Sec champion is the highest ranked, will play lowest ranked team that made the cut. Acc champion was ranked lowest out of the champions, will play the highest ranked team).

The top 2 do not play in these bowls. They play in the national title which rotates as it does now. The teams that take their spot are teams that they played in the conference championship. (every conference must have a conference championship.)

The top two ranked teams will play for the NC. Must be Conference champions.
