The problem with this article is that it lobbies for a true playoff system. If you install a playoff, you lower the intensity of college football to that of the NFL. Regular season games would lose importance. Think about it, Texas wouldnt have to stress about losing to OU--just win the rest of the games and get'em in the play offs. Part of the excitement and intensity of I-A football is that EVERY game is critical. Instead, people should support a system that outlines concrete rules that go into effect WHEN NECESSARY. For instance a rule that allows for a BCS +1 IF NEEDED. THe rule could contain a clause that forced undefeated teams to be paired against one another. IF after the BCS plays out, there are 2 undefeated teams, the +1 kicks in. A major problem is that they keep trying to devise a system that handles imaginable problems. However, with 117 teams playing, unimaginable things happen. This systems would steer away from a true playoff where VT and Pitt hypothetically could have played for the title. Guys no matter how good you think a playoff sounds, do we really want college football to mirror the NFL? I don't.
