QUICK KICK: Here’s What’s Wrong with the BCS System

by Scott Weiss

If you are one of the few still on the fence about the effectiveness of the BCS system in college football, please this article in fanhouse.  It reads more like a meeting of the six main mafia families than it does a meeting of college football executives.  This is not what college athletics is supposed to be about; reps of the big conferences belittling and threatening reps of the smaller conferences.

Like every other pro and college sports league, it’s time for a playoff system to decide the champion, not a return to the old Bowl system that one big conference exec threatens.
