3. Well, would you want computers and politics deciding it...
...or let the teams decide it on the field???

Why shouldn't LSU, USC, Oklahoma and another team get the chance to hypothetically battle it out on the field???

Here's why the BCS is crap:

LSU is in the national championship. But to compare USC to Oklahoma, USC loses to Cal, Oklahoma loses to K-State. California is a worse team than K-State. Oh, well then, Oklahoma is CLEARLY the better team than USC, right???:eyes: There's no WAY that we have to allow those two teams to play each other to see which one is better, like EVERY SINGLE OTHER COLLEGE SPORT IN EVERY OTHER DIVISION EXCEPT OURS!!!!

If Oklahoma played USC 10 times, it would be a 5-5 split. WHY NOT LET THE FUCKING TEAMS DECIDE IT IN A PLAYOFF INSTEAD OF A COMPUTER SYSTEM THAT JUST ASSUMES THAT THIS TEAM IS DEFINITELY BETTER THAN THE OTHER???!!!

I bet Michigan, Ohio State, Florida State, etc. could easily give OK a run for their money in a playoff game.

LET THE TOP-EIGHT TEAMS DECIDE IT ON THE FIELD!!! NOT THE COMPUTERS!!!
