That Time of Year Again

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it's that time of year again. With Christmas behind us, and the New Year underway (happy new year, by the way), it must be time to try to figure out why we don't have a playoff in place for Division IA (FBS) NCAA football yet. With Georgia's strong showing against a previously undefeated Hawaii, and USC breezing past the Illini, does anyone think a game between an Ohio State that lost to the aforementioned Illinois team, and a two-loss (8-5 Kentucky and Arkansas) Tiger team will really determine anything resembling a national championship (let alone define a BCS champion)? If Oklahoma has a strong showing tonight, you can add them to the list of deserving candidates, and further muddle the picture.



Let the celebrations begin. The confusion is just getting started--bring us a playoff!

What do you think?
