The sys tem
Fuck it- the current way of crowning a NCAA football champion suxx, and it should be done in with w/ a playoff system to determine a champion- just like every other level of football in college- and in high school- and in grammer school- and just like EVERY OTHER SPORT IN AMERICA. For me, there is no credibility in NCAA Division 1 football, since the champion is never decided on the field. For me, the current system is like throwing dice- the champion under the BCS system is the one of two teams who gets selected by a variety of sports writers and computers programs. There is no way of determining the true champion in a really unfettered way until everyone wises up and flushes the BCS into the sewer.
For monetary reasons - or whatever other excuses the BCS fools have managed to sadly create the current 'manufactured consent' in the public - we get stuck with this fucking crap. Enough. Lets determine the champion through palying, and not via the computer.
This week end
Well, what am I supposed to say? I'm scared? Maybe. Two great upsets this weekend. I love it-but there is a downside. The upsets may give a "Weapons of Mass Destruction" type dishonest arguing point to the Jokers who tout the BCS when there happens to be only two teams that seem to be the absolute best. With so many upsets this year, there may be just two teams with one or none losses this year that the fools can point to and say "HEY- BCS WORKS". Never. BCS is a deeply rotten system held aloft only by the various bowl committees who want it to cntinue.
But I'll also admit, that for our purposes, the revolutionaries in The Bowl Anarchy Society were resplendent with joy over the dual upsets this weekend: AP #2 Oregon lost on Thursday nite to Arizona 34-24, and on Saturday Nite Texas Tech ran up a huge lead in the first half and held on over AP #3 Oklahoma. Oregon and Oklahoma now have two losses, and that dwindles the field of possible national contenders to six........or is it eight? We love the fact that there has been deep anarchy @ the top of the college football polls, and we hope it continues to show up the BCS bowl system as the piece of shit fakery to real competition that it has always been.

If you want the truth, I think the best two are LSU and Ohio State. And, if upsets continue, they may meet for the one off BCS championship. But more likely, it may produce an LSU -v- Missouri or West Virginia. If that happens, fuck all of you who keep this rot alive. The BCS and its crowd deserves it.
Me? I'm hoping for that dual championsip to yet again rear its lovely head. But you know what? Just like 50m people voted for Bush in 2004- Americans, believe it or not, voted for that guy- there will be similar types who keep insisting that BCS is the way to go.
I want a true national champion- not whatever two teams the computers have attempted to manufacture consent over.
Next Week
On Thursday, #7 Arizona State (9-1) plays still dangerous USC, and I believe USC will win. AP #2 Kansas and #4 Missouri meet this week to determine the winner of the Big 12 North Division. Kansas is 11-0 and Missouri is 10-1. The winner will play in the Big 12 championship in December. For our hopes, it would be nice to see Missouri win this game and then lose in the Big 12 title game. That would give both teams 2 losses. LSU, West Virginia, and Ohio State all have one loss.
The plan is to get all of the above teams 2 losses- that would mean that 20 teams or so would have a legitimate argument for inclusion into the BCS title game.
We're rooting for Anarchy.
