"BCS computers are biased"
"You shouldn't be in if you don't win your conference."
"Refs favoring certain teams" myth

:[ images of shite just spraying everywhere ].jpg:

Thank you to those idiots whoever said this back over the last 15 years and helped perpetuate what we're seeing now.

Well if they had done the right thing and put in Oklahoma State we wouldn’t have this problem. Don’t forget your coach not even ranking them third.

It was the system. Coaches had a vote that they never should have but I doubt his one vote put that in place.

Anyways, like a moth to fricking flame

1 hundo agree. The other two should be ND and BYU (though I wouldn't mind a play-in of Texas and BYU :dunno)

Let’s say they put in Notre game and Texas. Wouldn’t Vanderbilt still have a gripe? Nevertheless, any of those teams would be better than James Madison or Tulane. Somebody’s always gonna be left out there maybe should be in there, but it’s ridiculous to put in teams that have no business being there.

You have this because they know the G schools will sue them if they’re excluded…..and win

It was mainly just fans from the shitty conferences wasn't it? I don't remember many SEC fans vehemently railing against the BCS.

In my (very) biased opinion, yes.

That is where it all started.

Is this a 21-0 thing?

It's a 21-0 thing, isn't it?

Now is vastly superior to the crap before. Every team that has a actual chance to win the natty is included.

I know of that yes. Would they be successful? I wouldn't say 1 hundo but it's not far off.

That's a product of the playoff. Not ditching the BCS formula. I don't know why we can't just do both.
