As a Nebraska fan and a Duck I can tell you no way in hell Colorado should have gone with 2 losses  ;)

Its dreaming... I know... but anything that reveals the BCS as the load of BS that it is is a good thing.

I love how some teams aren't even considered for certain bowls because their fans "don't travel well." WTF? So basically your fans ability to fill hotel rooms is more important than the team's actual ability.

My favorite team (Syracuse) will never have a shot at a national championship. I enjoy watching them get their 8 or 9 wins a year. They usually go to a bowl. This year they beat Va Tech, all 3 of their losses are to top 10 teams, and yet they get stuck in the 'Yugo Hyundai Piece o' Crap Bowl."

Hopefully someday the NCAA will get their heads out of their tulips and implement some type of a playoff system. Less politics, less money, more football dammit.

Hey Raub

Cornerback Willie Ford at Syracuse went to my high school with me  :)
