A Facebook page...are you kidding? What's even more odd is that the page already has 1,500+ fans. Who are these people? The page consists mostly of comments from the BCS itself about why the system works.
The BCS is also on Twitter...who is following them except those who may want to destroy them?
And as of yesterday the BCS came out with a new website explaining all the pitfalls of a playoff system in college football.
SI's Andy Staples said it best in this article. But he summed it all up with this:
If the BCS really is impervious to a challenge... -- and all this nervous posturing suggests it isn't -- then BCS honchos don't need to explain squat. Fans will continue to consume college football whether BCS leaders communicate with them or not. When BCS folks try to talk to the fans, they come off sounding like Lily Tomlin in the old Saturday Night Live phone company skit.
Again, we needed the BCS 11 years ago and, granted, it has been successful some years. No one is disputing their claim that the system pits #1 vs. #2 every year (duh...you decide #1 and #2). It's the way the system defines #1 and #2. And its the undefeated #3 and #4, and the ranked teams from non-AQ conferences, and just the blatant unjustness of it all - that is what all the outcry is about.
