After years of being an anti-BCS spokesperson, I awoke from my slumber this morning to find out BCS officials sent a memo to the Superdome titled: "New Orleans we have a problem!" (alright, I made that up). What I won't make up is the fact that the BCS is in one its most confused states that I've seen it in, and that's saying a lot. A few weeks ago the BCS was on the up. We had a nice pack of contenders at the top and speculation as to who would face off against the mighty LSU Tigers. Would it be Oklahoma State, Stanford, Boise State, or a rematch with Alabama (which was the long-shot at the time)? Now, all of a sudden, that LSU vs. Alabama rematch in the BCS title game looks like the front-runner in deciding who will be this year's National Champion of College Football. The question that lies within, is whether or not Oregon will get a stab at an undefeated LSU over Alabama? The last time this scenario presented itself in the BCS, that highly touted SEC rematch didn't happen... Does the fact that Alabama and LSU had an epic game earlier this season that was decided in overtime, by field goals, 5 of them to be exact- make any difference in their rematch hopes? Only time will tell, but I will say one thing: "A 4 team playoff would solve everything...When will the fans get what they deserve?"
