Defense College of the system of football
Defense College of the system of football Maybe all the critics of the Bowl Championship Series can take a deep breath and a few months off in his criticism of the system. Texas and USC is probably close to undefeated, winning the right to assemble for the crystal trophy emblematic of bad national championship. That annoy many people who believe that the system is not complete without a playoff, people too often miss the point of what makes college football unique from any other university sport.The competitive game does not need a playoff, which has already incorporated in the regular season. Miami and Virginia Tech a couple of weeks ago? Playoff game. Miami and Florida State away on Labor Day? Playoff game. Texas and Ohio St in September, and SC, Notre Dame and the month of October? Thing.The same problem with many sports is that the regular season, but it is not false drama. It's OK to lose, only to lose too many games that we lost in the post-season. On Monday night between the Patriots and Colts had no sense of urgency. The only question is whether Indianapolis could finally break against New England. Both teams will be in the playoffs so that the outcome of this game is meaningless.College football has survived for 135 years without a playoff. For years, college football and its fans were fine with a regular season that led to a handful of bowl games that served as a reward for conference champions and near-champions. The national championship has sometimes led to controversy. So what? This only serves to keep the game on the front buer, even after the season.Of course was? Not good enough for people that want? Solve the problem in the field?. The critics refuse to see what is already the case. Therefore, we have the Bowl Championship Series, whose main achievement has been to solve a problem that does not? Do not exist. While the highest part of the two ranked teams, has diluted the interest of all the other bowls. A system that even erode playoff further.If had a playoff, how many teams should be involved? Four? Eight? Sixteen? The Rose Bowl Sugar Bowl lost or what? S left of its former glory when it was nothing more than a quarter-or semi-final games. This also rules out the fans, and may go to a game, but not many bowl trips by road. The only winners are the corporate suits, the television mogul, notables and conferences, an unholy trinity that has caused enough damage in the game, as I say is.I even if the current system of staff gave me a reason for them do not like. I am a graduate of Aubu and firm conviction that the Shafter Tigers were last year. Sometimes life is like that. Taking the bad calls and units. Sometimes, the Oscar winning film is simply boring. Happens.The is more vocal proponents of a playoff are the writers and broadcasters who see the game from the university as a junior version of the NFL. All athletes who want to take that annoying equality has led to the notion that the second loser falls first and only one team can call on years successful.They not understand the meaning of hedgerows, the 3rd Saturday October, or the world? s largest party. They do not get the attraction of shooting games such as Red River, the Iron Bowl, or the civil war. They do not understand the 12th man in College Station, Vol marine Knoxville, or contact Jesus in South Bend. And you do not see the attraction of places like the Great House, a horseshoe, and the swamp. Frankly, I miss the days when the regular season was to win their conference and then a place in a bowl game. The mythical national championship, the players remained in 4 years to school and eaed degrees in fact, the only performance enhancer Gatorade.Alex Lekas is the VP / PR for a company and Inteet services on a voluntary basis, units 7 hours each way to see Aubu play several times. If you've never been a game on campus in a big-time school, you have missed one of the pleasures of real life.
