@ SVPS - LD learned from me
@ JS - gotta love the irony with the offensive genius in Weis. Can’t believe West Va blew their shot at the title losing to Wannstedt. That’s horrible.
@ Gilbert - even a 4-team playoff this year would’ve left out USC (according to the BCS where they were 5th). I’m not sure that would’ve solved it.

There is a middle ground between college basketball’s regular season diminished because 65 teams get in and college football’s mess where you don’t always have a true national champion.

Maybe a 4-team or 8-team playoff would be the middle ground? You’d still have to have a really good season to get in. The only one of your games would be meaningless is maybe if you start 11-0. Maybe. But that would usually just happen to one or two teams, and the rest would still have to play to win every game of the year.

Worst season? Not fond of March Madness?

Is this Larry Brown or Larry David?

Pete Carroll will rue forever that he didn’t put Mark Sanchez in for the second half against Stanford, nevertheless the Trojans should have prevailed even if all their quarterbacks had all their fingers broken.

Probably the most devastating injury to anyone this season had to be Dennis Dixon of Oregon. Not only was he heading to perhaps Heisman glory, but the Ducks probably would have prevailed in the three games they lost after the injury and been in New Orleans to run roughshod over the Buckeyes.

And don’t forget the West Virginia team that ran and passed all over Oklahoma would have been in the NC game save their inexplainable (gasp) 13-9 loss to lowly Pitt.

Of course, was there anything more disapointing (or laughable depending on your point of view) than that offensive genius, Charlie Weis, directing the 119th ranked offense among the 119 Bowl Subdivsion, or whatever they call it, teams?
