OK, the BCS had LSU number 1, the AP USC number 1... depending on who you're supporting (and it sounds as though you're a Tiger fan and I'm a Trojan fan), the argument stays the same.

But you talk to any knowledgeable fan in around the country, 90 percent say SC lays the smackdown on LSU last year if they played. Did you watch that farce of a game called the Sugar Bowl? Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy. LSU has a great defense, but a mediocre offense. You can't compare the offense to USC's last year. And Oklahoma almost came back playing a really bad game against LSU! Also, USC wiped the floor with #4 Michigan in their game.

The coaches poll also had SC number one, but they are all obligated to vote BCS #1 as their number one. If it wasn't for that obligation, SC remains number #1 in both AP and coaches. How does number 1 go to number 2 after new year's after winning their game? Don't think that's ever happened in the history of college football.

But all this argument is what both fans did for almost an entire month- it's over and I totally agree with you re: a playoff system. BcS is a farce!
