The BCS Smokescreen
Nov 14, 2007 | 6:24AM | report this

This time of year brings all of us college football fans together around the proverbial campfire we call the BCS ranking system.  Everyone comes out with their expert opinions and reasons why the undefeated teams are undeserving of any credit.  Joe Schmo says Michigan should be number 1 because their SOS is 10 and blah, blah, blah.  Tom, ####, and Harry say West Virginia has a better shot at the championship game because their schedule was supposed to be good.  Peter, Paul, and Mary say Ohio State doesn’t deserve to be punished for their loss late in the season.  You know it’s just not fair to lose early and have a chance to climb back up the polls, right over teams that don’t lose.  Here’s an idea, Jim Bob over here thinks Florida is a top team even though they have three losses because Jim Bob said so at the beginning of the year.  

All in all I feel sorry for you people who actually believe the BCS has any merit what so ever.  The people who have stood to make the make the most cash off of these “amateur” athletes have got you all fooled.  Don’t you see?  They come up with a system called a “computer”, and a “ranking system.”  As the season progresses the necessary changes are made within the system and in the computers to ensure the most financially viable match-up is the one we get for the NC game.  How else would you explain Florida jumping over Michigan at the end of last season?  How else would you explain any of the other ridiculous match-ups the computers have spit out since the system was introduced?  These cowards at the top can then hide behind the “computer” and count the millions of dollars they rake in.  Rather ingenious if you ask me.  So, good luck with your rankings and all this other baloney.  It’s a freaking conspiracy if you ask me.

ABOUT ME


sportthink
Published sports column contributor, but I'm about the 560th ranked blogger on this site. I'll keep most of my posts sports related. My sense of humor exists to amuse myself. This has happened by default because I rarely seem to amuse anyone else. I'm ashamed that my favorite professional sports teams are from the city of San Francisco. Favorite sports listed from favorite to least favorite: duck-duck- goose, red-light green-light, freeze tag, marco polo, and hop-scotch.
