[NU Sports] With political involvement afoot, prepare for major BCS change

[SjT (Stephen J. Truog)]

Don't tease me with stories that contain the line "the BCS will cease to exist" ... that's change I can certainly believe in!:)

Oh well, just a move to please those conservatives in Texas and Utah!:) Wonder if they can find bipartisanship for that.

In any case, my "libertarian" friend in Korea can rest assured that even if this B-C-Mess wonderfully went away, I had the next year's worth of essays graded and lessons planned and every deadline for the newspaper and yearbook was finished, I would STILL find a bazillion things I'd rather to than golf. Blech.:)

And yeah, I'd probably miss the B(C)S -- it's such an awful compromise, the worst of both worlds, and such an easy target ... can't imagine something could be worse, but be careful what you ask for, I guess.

And even the NCAA can't be trusted to run it, with the talk of expanding the March Madness tournament to try and make it run longer than that interminable baseball season.

But good to see us start the second half off right by beating Michigan to keep taking steps to get to the NCAA Tourney while it still matters and before it becomes like hockey where everyone gets in.:)

GO CATS!!!
