Just when you thought the BCS (Bowl Championship Series) couldn't get any more idiotic -- it does. Rather than face the embarrassment of a non-BCS team defeating one of its BCS boys as happened last season, it finds a solution. It puts perhaps the best two teams in the nation, TCU and Boise State, against each other in the Fiesta Bowl. The BCS did not want to face the humiliation it did last time when Utah, from the non-BCS Mountain West Conference, defeated Alabama from the BCS's Southeast Conference.
The BCS continues to resist a playoff system which would allow a legitimate champion to rise to the top. So, forget the Alabama-Texas BCS "national championship" game next month. The real national champion will be decided when TCU plays Boise State (the only bowl game I will watch). And again, the real loser will be the BCS, college football's perennial bad joke.
Obama, for once you got it right.
