Through all the horseshit of the BCS the purity remains in Pasadena

The Rose Bowl Game.

Big Ten vs Pac-12

Classic.

Shit, if that rings true, than throw the Orange Bowl in there too; it's historically been the ACC vs. the Big East before the BCS Title Game came about.

Aren't the Rose Bowl/PAC/B1G the biggest detractors of a playoff?

But it is still an also-ran game anymore. It doesn't hold as much prestige as you think.

Michigan and Big 10 fan ... and I think your right (Rep Added). We don't like to hear the truth, but if you gave me the choice between a BCS Championship Game and a Rose Bowl, the choice is easily BCS.

It's also one big dump of a stadium.

True. I love the Rose Bowl. I hate the stadium. Bathrooms suck. Gates are tough to get in and out. Seats go up on such a small incline that it doesn't take long before you're far away from action.

Still, love it.

Yup, the PAC and BIG didn't want to lose the game so that is one of the biggest issues they had with even discussing a playoff.

So this topic is ironic.
