[NU Sports] Re: Utah and the playoff ...

[Arthur Miller]

I think the article is ridiculous.  Everyone's a victim, it seems.  Well, I'm not buying the argument that a 12-0 team is always better than a 12-1 team.
 
 
If you ask me, the BCS conferences need to separate from the rest of I-A and form our own football subdivision.  There are too many teams in I-A as it is, and this a large part of the difficulty in finding an equitable way of determining a champion.  As a general rule, the BCS programs were playing football 100 years ago, and made this sport into the incredible spectacle that it is today.  Why should they have to share revenues with programs like Buffalo and Central Florida that have been in I-A for only a few years?
 
 
That's my 2 cents.
