So, to you guys above, what happens when you have a single 1-loss team and a slew of 2 loss teams, kinda like last season? I can see giving a pass to a really good 1 loss team that may just have "stumbled," but any 2 loss team shows some weaknesses. Every year i root for either the above, or an even better scenario, one where you have a ton of 2 loss teams and no team with 1 loss.
And what the hell is "bowl tradition" anyway? Just because you've been doing something a long time doesn't mean its good or right. It simply means you are afraid of change, or in the case of the BCS conferences, you simply want to guarantee your 8 figure payday. The "bowl tradition" isn't about some great long standing process in college football. Its a great way for big schools to further line their pockets and make sure the small schools stay that way.
