Quite true.<br /><br />It seems the BCS game is played simply so pollsters can see how bad the non-SEC team will lose, so they'll know how low to drop them in the polls.Basilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00304218067534993876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052406779197845814.post-87454457195702167422010-01-08T11:41:36.696-05:002010-01-08T11:41:36.696-05:00Well, there's that and then there is the fact ...Well, there's that and then there is the fact that the true national championship game is played every year in Atlanta.Paul Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825674914008378242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052406779197845814.post-19033528592843478832010-01-08T01:28:50.329-05:002010-01-08T01:28:50.329-05:00For those that didn't get your point in the qu...For those that didn't get your point in the question: All four actual BCS Championship Games have been won by an SEC team. <br /><br />Prior to the 2005 season, there was no Championship Game, although they tried to match #1 against #2 in the Rose, Orange, Sugar, or Fiesta Bowls. <br /><br />But several bowls over the years, prior to the BCS, featured #1 vs #2, starting with the 1963 Rose Bowl. It happened 11 times from 1963 to 1996. It did not happen in 2004, 2002, or 2001 bowls, under the Bowl Alliance.Basilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00304218067534993876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052406779197845814.post-66687109831301683832010-01-08T01:11:57.531-05:002010-01-08T01:11:57.531-05:00I am glad that the BCS put Boise State and TCU tog...I am glad that the BCS put Boise State and TCU together. Who in Hell wanted to watch them play a good team and get shellacked like ESPN's darling Cincinnati did? <br /><br />Remind me again, when was the last time a team other than an SEC team won the "national" championship?Paul Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825674914008378242noreply@blogger.com
