How SWE-E-E-ET it is! Hokies going to Orange Bowl IF not picked for the National Championship game this afternoon (IT could happen :-D) Yesterday's bizarre turn of events for the BCS "Championship" game have shown the need for a playoff system limited to more than two teams chosen in a popularity contest as it is now. >>“Virginia Tech might have better computer rankings. Oklahoma might be better with the polling numbers,” Palm said. “But I don’t think either has the combination that LSU will have.”<< -Jerry Palm of wwwcollegebcs.com The question was who the BCS might chose to play Ohio State in the 2007 season National Championship game. Clipped from msnbc.msn.com (Let the lobbying begin: upsets create BCS mess) Everyone knows football bragging rights often come down to a lucky or unlucky gust of wind on a last second field goal. But at least it should be decided on the field. A proposal for a playoff of twelve teams (with four getting byes in the first round) makes sense to me. It would be combined with some Bowl Games for various "wouldn't-you-like-to-see" match-ups for regional and other rivalry bragging rights. The article which convinced me is at 0-www.msnbc.msn.com.millennium.unicatt.it (Time to make all the bowls mean something Why not convert the ones few watch into a playoff system? OPINION By Mike Celizic) Geaux Hokies! P.S. It was painful watching West Virginia's magical season ended with what Rich Rodriguez accurately described as "just a nightmare."
