Death to the Bull Chit Series

Written by the Bowl Anachrist

Well, it could have been a better weekend for those of us interested in totally destroying the shitty bowl system the NCAA has shackeled us to, but when two of the top four in the BCS rankings lose, it can't be all that bad. We remain: interested in the replacement of the current bowl system by a 16 team playoff in NCAA football. We agitate and celebrate: losses and upsets and other factors that always make the BCS system look like what it is:

SHIT

The gimmie loss was Arizona State losing to Oregon. They were 4 and 5 in the BCS, so one high team or the other had to lose. They are both now 8-1. In retrospect it may have been better for our purposes for Oregon to lose- that would have given them 2 losses, whearas Arizona State still has to play USC and may well lose that game.

I figured that Boston College could not go undefeated this year, and they didn't. Normally I would totally root for B.C. against any of the Florida teams, but not this year.

The big excitement was the almost upset of LSU at Alabama. Double T.D.'s in the last three minutes- one helped by a fucking stupid ass fumble- allowed LSU to stay alive in the BCS chase.

And what about Kansas. Still another undefeated team we have to worry about, and fuck what a number they did on Nebraska.

So, as it stands now, Ohio State is a clear #1. We have to hope that there are too many questions as to who they should play in the BCS title game that its creditability will drop even further. Hopefully, we can have another split championship season. LSU is #2, but there are also six other one loss teams as well as another undefeated team. We still have a lot of work to go.

Best hopes this week for an upset, I hate to say, rests with Illinois -v- Ohio State. Hopefully something is out there to further fuck up the system.

Till next week-

DEATH TO THE BOWLS !!!
