Default College Bowl games anyone?

Football thread II The revenge.

Does anybody follow college football (Euro rif-raff need not post here, yes it's American football. Soccer hooligans please go away. )

Any-hooow, talk trash here.:rotfl: I think that there are about 20 too many bowl games. I wish they'd do a play-off system with only the conerfence champion, but that will never happen. I'm also tired of these big conferences being able to send their mediocre teams to a bowl game (Oregon ducks) or U of Minnesota.

There are way to many bowl games, the reason, probably because there is no such thing as a loser anymore, everyone is a "winner", bunch of crap if you ask me. The only high point to all these games is that my old school of Central Michigan University won their conference and made the Motor City Bowl so this year I will accept all the games. Hopefully U of M wins as well. Last but not least I know its blasphemy but I hope Ohio State melees Florida because they rode in on the coat tails of everyone elses misfortune.

The BCS is needlessly elaborate and far too crooked to interest me. The system of national rankings shows large amounts of inherent bias by far too many journalists, and the system does not reward smaller schools in favor of the established 'good ol boys' (Notre Dame, anyone?).

Better to stick with the pros. At least they have no issue with stating their overt commecialism. College football, on the other hand, likes to pretend that it still has not sold it's soul.

Both UoMs Minnesota and the other one stank it up.

...Watching Oregon make fools of themselves on national TV...priceless:rotfl:

38-8...Who's the sub-par converence now? But your uniforms look sooooo good:rotfl:

Wow, no need to start a new thread, when I can use my old thread.
2007 season:
http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/rankingsindex

just found this, maybe there is some justice:
http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=3119690

Is it just me, or does college football stink this year? It's too bad they'll never do a play-off system. I'd love to see the top teams work it out this way, instead of the bowl system . On a side note, I've been dying for Monday to come, so I could listen to the local sport's radio regarding oregon's meltdown:rotfl: :rotfl: . Couldn't happen to a nicer team. See, what everybody misses, is the Yocal media here: In the newspaper, a yocal poll had dixon winning the Heisman and the U of Oregon winning the national title.:rotfl: :rotfl:

...and true to form, they (local reporters) are still plotting how Oregon can win it all:rotfl: :rotfl: . Just remember the "O" on the helmet stands for "o"ver-rated. Go take your anti- depressants and drink a bottle of vodka.

Euro riff raff?....

Din amerikanska bögjävel, dra åt helvete min din jävla flagga och era jävla kaptialistiska planer. Sug kuk å kolla på amerikansk fotboll istället. Eran tid kommer
