Not in my opinion. Even with all the hullabaloo about Auburn, Oklahoma St, etal getting left out, the only reason they went to 4 is because of the additional revenue they saw they could get for the additional two games.
Or they will start reducing what they are paying for games.
That's an excellent point. Just as Oklahoma got blown out 35-7 in the 2003 Big XII Championship to Kansas St, still remained #1 in the BCS, and played for the NC. In 2001, Oregon would have been in my playoff.
Wouldn't 2010 have had Ohio State in it? They had not been caught using ineligible players yet.
Well if that were the case, why are we at 4 teams instead of 2?
I gave 6 conference champions spots due to their top-10 finish in the BCS. Boise St tied for their CC that year and had a top-10 finish at #10. You bring up a good point. I was bouncing back and forth with that one. Had I not put Boise St in Ohio St would have taken that spot. They were one spot behind Stanford and Wisconsin for an at-large. If you put Ohio St in...
Just east of Nebraska.
I appreciate your interest. They were co-champs of the Big Ten. The problem was Iowa and Ohio St were both 8-0 in conference. There was no HTH. Overall unbeaten Ohio St was given the BCS spot. Miami, Georgia, and Oklahoma all won their conference outright. Washington St, with a HTH win over USC, gave them the Pac-10. With USC being ranked one spot ahead of Iowa that would have doomed the Hawkeyes for an at-large. This would be a perfect example for fans to scream for an 8-team playoff....in which I'd be in favor.
