First of all, I have to admit I don't care about college football NEARLY as much as I care about the NFL and the reason is because at the end of the day, they don't settle their championship on the field. We have a mythical national championship that pits two teams perceived to be 1 and 2, instead of going by a playoff system like EVERY OTHER college sport does, including lower levels of football.
The rankings are severely biased towards big time teams from big time conferences. Case in point with this week's rankings.
Case in point..USC lost to Washington who is currently 3-4 and went all of last year without a win. They are currently ranked 4th and above undefeated Cincinnatti, Boise State, and Iowa.
USC's marquee wins are over 2 loss Ohio State and 2 loss Notre Dame.
Ohio State loses to 1-5 Purdue and stays in the top 25?
And the funniest of all....Oklahoma is 3-3!!! That's right they are a .500 team and STILL earned a spot in the top 25. They have played 3 ranked teams this year and lost to all three...and somehow get rewarded for this.
What a joke!
Until the BCS adopts a playoff system that gives at least 8 teams a shot at the national championship through a playoff bracket, I will continue to laugh at the stupiditiy that is NCAA FBS Division Football (Formerly Division I)
