Politicians Should Not Solve BCS Controversy

Any diehard college football fan knows that the season does not get started until late October or early November, when the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) controversy takes center stage, and fans throughout the country debate who the best teams are in the NCAA.

Fans of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) will argue that they have the best conference and therefore should almost be guaranteed a representative in the BCS championship game. Fans of teams on the West Coast will argue that there is an East Coast bias when it comes to college sports, and that one of the Pac 10 teams should be considered. Furthermore, fans of non BCS teams such as Boise State and TCU will argue that their teams are not given a fair chance because of a failed system that favors the big money conferences instead of the product on the field.

However,customized bobbleheads, the BCS controversy has reached epic proportions as politicians from Congressman Joe Barton of Texas to even President Barack Obama have expressed their determination to implement a playoff system amongst NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) schools, ending the BCS controversy for good.

�If you�ve got a bunch of teams who play throughout the season, and many of them have one loss or two losses, there�s no clear decisive winner,personalized bobblehead,� Obama said in a 2008 interview. �We should be creating a playoff system,custom bobblehead.�

Obama�s playoff system would include the top eight teams playing for the national championship over a three week period. �It would add three weeks to the season.
