You don't think ESPN is happier than you with a playoff? 15 rating for both games. Ohio and the West Coast for the final. Collin made a good point - no network wants the south as its base of viewership. Ohio State Michigan was one of the highest rated games of the year.
ESPN wants eyeballs. The whole ESPN SEC thing is fucking stupid.
Larry Scott chose a third rate partner and isn't on major providers. That isn't the SEC's fault. -

The BCS was always a fraud.HoustonHusky said:If the BCS was still around does anyone think the championship game wouldn't have been an undefeated FSU vs a 1 loss 'Bama team? ESPN pushed that sham of a system for WAY too long.
Yesterday was just proof that the current fraud is a little better than the former fraud.

Saying the ACC is a Power 5 conference is like saying the CFL is a Power 2 professional league.
Take the champs of the Pac 12, B1G, SEC!!!, and Big 12, and 4 at large teams. -

Following this logic, the four team playoff is also a fraud. TCU might be better than Oregon and Ohio State.

The ACC has more playoff championships than everyone but the SEC and whichever team wins on the 12th.RavennaDawg said:Saying the ACC is a Power 5 conference is like saying the CFL is a Power 2 professional league.

Of course, the SEC has nine playoff titles while everyone else combined will have 8 after the 12th. -
The BCS was about consolidating college football under the ABC/ESPN umbrella...had nothing to do with finding a true "champion". Don't think they predicted (or cared) about the SEC bias that built itself into the system.
