the bcs system

i discovered tonight that ea sports ncaa college footbal is as badly flawed as the bcs system... to say a team can go undefeated for twelve years, win twelve bcs national championships in a row, be the defending champion, go undefeated yet another year, and still be ranked third... ridiculous, but that's the way the bcs is set up... it's worse in ea sports world though... i mean, tcu and west virginia are two of the top rated schools every year... bias?... but besides the built in bias, there is no computer rankings, just coach and media, which is arbitrary to say the least... add to the undefeated for almost 13 seasons, a winning streak of 192 games, ten straight national chamionships, a record of 87-1 against top 25 teams, breaking almost every record in the game, and having this latest undefeated season end with a #3 ranking the following...

W/L Opp. Top25 10 Win Teams Beaten Highest Rank Wins
the #1 team ... 12-0 ... 79-64 ... 2 ... 1 . . . . . . . . . #5, #19
the #2 team ... 12-0 ... 63-81 ... 3 ... 3 . . . . . . . . . #6, #11, #12
the #3 team ... 13-0 ... 91-67 ... 4 ... 4 . . . . . . . . . #7, #13, #14, #21

doesn't make much sense... Opp. is the opponents record... 10 win teams beaten is the number of teams defeated who have 10 wins on the season... top25 is the number of top 25 teams beaten (as of end of season rankings)... team # 3 actually scheduled 6 top 25 teams to play and played the four ranked teams as away games... we won't get into points margins because those are ridiculously in favor of team #3... so unfair it is, master yoda...

more later when i wake...
