So the current system is better than a potential playoff system? A system where you can go undefeated (even in a BCS conference) and be denied the chance to play for a national title?
Yes, this NC game was shit and I don't think any intelligent sports fan would make the claim these were the two best teams in the nation, the NCAAFB system still is pure shit.
That sport doesn't even have a legit champion.
hno:
College Footballs postseason is a joke ! One of your so called signature marquee exhibition games was Uconn-Oklahoma. What and how did that game benefit anyone ? Someone explain to me what was the importance of that game ? Watching Butler or VCU earn their way into the final four is alot more exciting to me then watching games selected by fat cats to suit their own interest. The games don't mean anything except for Fishhead telling us that its a great experience for the student athlete.
You can't compare basketball to football. Football is a strength sport. There are only so many teams that are strong and skillful enough to withstand a 3 or 4 game playoff to win the national championship. It would be a much more clearcut outcome in college football than it is college basketball. And when all is said and done, because of team depth, the winner would probably always come out of a BCS conference if the NCAA had a playoff.. Basketball is a much different animal. I rememeber even the experts were saying when VCU played Kansas that the differences in talent between the teams wasn't there after you take away a player or two from Kansas. There is much more parity in college basketball. And it's always been about who is the hottest team at the end of the season. Baseball and other sports that rely on skill more than strength are the same way. There are many more peaks and valleys in these kinds of sports. And imo a little more luck is invloved in sports like basketball and having to get a ball through a tiny hoop 10 feet off the ground. So in most years your going to get some unexpected teams in the final four. Don't knock the system just because you eliminated those teams in the first game of your bracket.
