BCS: Will Boise State Finally Get Their Chance?

This college football season has been a roller coaster ride. A number of different teams have held the number one ranking in the nation and now we are down to just four undefeated teams. They are, ranked one through four, Oregon, Auburn, Boise State, and TCU. This is Boise States' greatest chance at playing in the national championship game, thats if they can remain undefeated and an easy remaining schedule says they will.

Oregon has looked human at times, Auburn is in a tough SEC where any school can beat you at any time and TCU, in my opinion is overrated. So if Boise State does remain undefeated how could they not be in the national championship? Well they've gotten snubbed before so it could happen. If Oregon and Auburn both remain undefeated, chances are they will match-up against each other. This is why college football needs a playoff, so these teams get the chance to show they can play with the "big boys". Boise State has already proven that with convincing bowl wins in the past but it still is not enough.

Create a playoff bracket where the top twelve teams get to battle it out for the national championship. Give the top four teams a first round bye and then continue the season. Some will argue that the season will be too long, but it already goes into early January, so at most it would be one week longer. Not only does it make sense logically, it also makes sense financially. Yes, I get it bowl games are all about money, but you could just have those same companies sponsor the playoff games and money will still be made. We would finally get a clear cut champion without any people claiming they weren't offered a shot.

Will this happen? Probably not because as I said college bowl season is all about money and they make a ton of it. So we will have to suffer through another year of the BCS and argue about who really is the best team in the nation.
