Because College Football should have a playoffs format and not a system in which voters decide which team should play for the Championship instead of deciding things on the field.

Nope I honestly don't care since I don't watch sports but that doesn't mean I want to boycott against something I don't watch.

I'll watch it again because in my opinion, these are the two best teams playing. Don't think Oklahoma State is as good as Alabama.

College is for education. You are thinking too much about enjoyment for yourself. Those players are kids and get injured.

lmao. You have any idea the revenue athletics bring in to schools like LSU and Alabama? That's basically their whole shtick. Colleges might like you to think it's about higher education, but as most things are it's a huge cash cow.

Honeslty, even if Alabama wins, how could you say they were national champions? LSU already beat them once, won their conference, and played a tougher schedule. We may as well just give the title to LSU since they have a better resume.

It is but at least they are trying to limit injuries by not havingplayoff system. There are already conference championships, playoffs will make them play as long as a NFL season if you include that.

Ha, they don't have a playoffs system because the BCS makes more money and they think they are preserving the importance of the regular season.

How?

It implies Alabama had no business being there. As opposed to say OSU who might have won. In all honestly what's wrong with this setup? LSU vs Stanford Alabama vs OSU Winners play. It's more fair, only adds one more game. And can you honestly say anyone outside the top 4 truly deserves it?

I don't understand how BCS makes more money that extra games for a playoff. Some of those stadiums hold 100,000 people. Maybe you can explain?

Hey, I don't know either. I think the playoffs would make more money even if the "preserving the regular season" argument has some merit.

they should have a playoff format of some sort, but it would take a solid 2 months to do if you were to give all of the legitimate contenders playoff spots, because there are a lot of schools out there

It wouldn't. Just take the top 6 teams, top 2 highest seeded CONFERENCE winners get a bye and so on. Should take no more than a month to complete.

Not everyone is a legitimate contender. Let's look at the BCS standings. Only really the top 4 would be competitive. 1. LSU - obviously 2. Alabama - obviously 3. OSU - Definite contender 4. Stanford - Definite contender 5. Oregon - Already lost to LSU by 13, not a contender 6. Arkansas - Lost to both LSU and Bama, lolno 7. Boise State - Sorry, but there really is no chance here 8. K-State - Blown out by OU, lost to OSU close. Wouldn't contend for title though 9. South Carolina - No 10. Wisconsin - No

Woop, forgot about that one. Scratch Stanford being a contender. Though I still think 4 would work best, unless there was a OSU Bama play-in game to play LSU.

I'm not watching it. It's a meaningless game. Even if Alabama wins LSU still has the more impressive body of work, and if OSU wins that's just going to add more chaos. You can't really argue that Alabama is the #1 team in the country when they split with LSU, and had a much easier schedule than either LSU or OSU.
