Anybody else read that story and think how fuc*ing rediculous it is that one man can stand in the way of America getting what it wants, every year more and more coaches of Major Schools and recently even the presidents of major Universities have joined the fight against the BCS and he can hold them all in it?? According to the Article the Pac-10 and the Big Ten Threaten to take the Rose Bowl out of the BCS system if the other conferences push for a play off, Who's going to bother watching th erose bowl if every year its either USC-Michingan or USC-Ohio State. This man is the more rediculous Greedy controlling P.O.S. ever and if this story is true and its really his fault. He deserves to at least lose his job if not get shot. He even admitted that he knows america wants a playoff but said its not going to make him enough money so he wont

This whole golden goose thing has been in debate for years.
I can't agree with you more about a Playoff system.
On a sports radio station last week, they read an article from 1967....GET THIS 1967!!!.....that stated "playoff structure is inevitably just around the corner because the current system just doesn't work...." (or something to that effect).
Looks like College Football has been waiting a long time. If the head-honchos were willing to spread the wealth, the playoff system would've already happened.

It just goes to show you that a weak NCAA commissioner is in charge. If I had an a**hole like Delaney pulling that crap on me then I would opt to pull the plug on the b*stard. Let's see how the Big 10 and PAC-10 do on their own and that includes all sports. They would only be able to play teams in their conferences and are not eligible for NCAA titles. I betcha ol' Delaney would then see the light.

The reason he won't do a playoff is because the BCS is controversial and controversy creates cash. Whether it's good or bad, people are talking about it and that keeps the interest in college football high. I rarely ever hear people say they won't watch college football b/c there's no playoff system. And yes, money also has a lot to do with this decision.

he's right though...in college football, I'm way more interested in seeing showdowns between traditional programs that I am seeing upsets
anyway, I do see the fault in the BCS but I still feel that a playoff would be bad and the current system, while not perfect, is the best option right now
