[NU Sports] Two words for the Oklahoma State boosters

[Arthur Miller]

Brad nailed it.

Some people need to drop their fetish about having a clear-cut national
champion in D-I college football.  There are too many teams, playing
schedules of widely varying difficulty, and the gap in resources between
the top and bottom programs is too great to make it feasible.

The BCS seems to me a reasonable compromise, but if the chattering class
can't accept it then we should drop it completely and go back to the
pre-BCS days.
