Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 5323141, member: 488"] If conferences were still 8-12 teams like they were intended to be, this might work. Unfortunately, you're never going to convince anyone that a league consisting of Alabama, OU, Texas, Georgia, LSU, etc. should be limited to two bids in order to make room for clearly inferior teams. It makes for bad TV and the networks don't want that. IMO, this all went wrong when we started allowing teams that did not win their conference to compete for national championships. That eliminated any incentive programs may have had to keep the leagues balanced and opened the door to super-conferences. If there's one rule that should be followed in any format it's this: limit rematches. Rematches are horrible and completely antithetical to what college football is all about. Letting Alabama in the BCS title game years ago when they'd already lost to LSU set a terrible precedent that we're still paying for today. [/QUOTE]
