[Husker] BCS - Am I alone?

[Michael Petersen]

If we want debate, we should go back to the old non-bcs system where quite 
often there were 3 or 4 bowls with National Championship implications. I 
remember waiting up new years night to see if A beat B and C lost to D then 
E would be Champions.

I hate the delayed BCS championship game. Teams shouldn't have to wait 7 
weeks to play and we shouldn't have to hear 7 weeks of hype.

I want 137 bowl games on New Years Day like it was meant to be.

Or an 8 team playoff starting right after Conference Championship games with 
the final game on New Years Day. The other bowls could be held the same.
