Memo to BCS: Please Don't!

Thank goodness Oregon beat Oregon State this weekend. Who would have wanted to see a replay of Oregon State vs Penn State a 44-14 whipping by PSU in September. USC vs Penn State will be a much better match up and it will be interesting to see if PSU is ready for prime time. (JoPa may want to retire before the game)


Ok, BCS you got lucky on that one. With that said, please give us good match ups this holiday season. Here are some games, that I want and don't want to see.


Fiesta: Texas vs Ohio State: Haven't we seen this game enough the past few years? Let's have a different match up please. What is the deal with Ohio State and the Fiesta Bowl? Does Columbus eat more nacho chips then any other city in America? Come on, give some else a shot to dip the nachos! BHB Pick: Texas vs Utah


Sugar: Will most likely get the loser in the Florida - Alabama game this weekend. This could be a nice match up between quality teams. BHB Pick: Alabama vs Ohio State/Boise State

Orange Bowl is pretty much a lock with Cincinnati vs Virgina Tech/Boston College winner. I think this could be a very entertaining game. BHB Pick: Cincinnati vs Virgina Tech

National Championship: Oklahoma vs Florida

Note: If Ohio State excepts a bid to a BCS game they should be required by the NCAA to sign a 10 year home and away contract with Cincinnati. This would be great not only for the State of Ohio it would also help Brian Kelly (one of the hottest coaching candidates) stay in the Big East. We also know that Ohio State needs another rival and not just two year contracts with major programs.

In fact, a Cincinnati - Ohio State Orange Bowl would be quite entertaining. Book it Orange!

BCS please stay away from the re-tread games, we don't want to see them and they make your system look even worse then it already is.
Most likely BCS Losers:
  • 12-0 Boise State: All they do is wins games but most likely will be left out in the Idaho cold over a two loss Ohio State team. BSU is also rated #9 in the BCS, while OSU is rated #10. Doesn't make a lot of sense. What a great system we have!
  • 11-1 Texas Tech: All they did was have one bad Saturday to the team in the National Championship game and they can't get a BCS invite because of the 3 team rule. Another example of how this system if flawed. Who wouldn't want to see an Alabama - Texas Tech match up in the Sugar Bowl?
