Death of the BCS

[shockandawe]

Just something to think about. Based on what has happened so far, it is likely that we have 5 (possibly 6) undefeated team at the end of the season.

1) USC (they play nobody except ND the rest of the way)
2) TEXAS (OK is not a threat this year so they are clear sailing)
3) Virgina Tech or Florida State (They have to beat Miami, which is down this year)
4) A SEC TEAM (If LSU. FLORIDA, UGA, or ALABAMA win out)
5) Louisville (See there laughable schedule)
6) Purdue (Again, look at there schedule)

Now, if this plays out...the BCS is dead. Why, because it is likely that for the second year in a row a SEC team would be undefeated in the best conference in the nation and not play for the title because you know Texas and USC are not going to drop to 3rd. So, you would have a BIG 10 team, ACC team, SEC team and a Big East team all left out and undefeated. So, of the 6 major conference ALL would have an undefeated team and only two would get a shot. Can you say PLAYOFF!!!If that does not kill the beast....nothing will.

I doubt Purdue...I think a strong Penn State team will beat them.

There were four undefeated teams last year going into bowl season and it didn't kill the BCS. As much as I'd like to see the BCS gone in favor of a playoff, I just don't see it happening.

I am predicting Texas vs. USC.

Florida will get beat by Georgia because Florida can't stop the run, Florida will beat LSU because LSU can't stop the pass, and I think we will beat UGA. We have lost to Florida and all other SEC teams have some sort of major shortcoming I don't think they can work around.

The ACC's tough defenses at the top should all be beating up on eachother. Virginia Tech might pull it off because their offense is halfway decent.

I believe Purdue and Louisville will not be considered seriously because of their schedule.

Texas is very talented, only shortcoming is a mediocre pass game (but not terrible), and have a reasonably tough (but not too tough) schedule for the rest of the season.
