WELL, THE FLORIDA GATORS GET TO PLAY FOR THE NATIONAL TITLE. This is what's technically called a 'crock'.

However, don't lose fact of what this 'crock' really is. It isn't a 'crock' because Michigan deserves it more than Florida (though they might). It is a crock because all the deserving teams don't get a chance to prove that they belong in the title game.

One word: Playoff.

That's the only way to resolve this annual dilemma.

Murdoc is openly rooting for whatever discredits the Bowl Championship Series the most. This year, it appears to be a scenario where Ohio State crushes Florida and Michigan beats USC convincingly. That would suggest that Michigan should have had a chance to play for the trophy. Many other scenarios could help "prove" that the BCS is a 'crock', even though further proof shouldn't be required.

When Division I-A football adopts a playoff I will start watching games again. Until that time, the only interest I have in the sport is to figure out in what new and exciting manner the BCS is going to screw up teams, schools, and fans this year.
