It was just not a strong conference. As follows, the Rose Bowl always had the Big 10 champ playing the PAC 10 champ, the Orange Bowl always had the ACC champ, Sugar Bowl always had the SEC champ, and the Fiesta Bowl almost always got the Big 12 champ. The Big East champ was just there to fill in the weak spots, along with Notre Dame filling in the strong spots. The Bowl Championship Series had other flaws, and it was done away with after the controversial decisions to not include undefeated Boise State in 2009 and undefeated TCU the following year. [/QUOTE]
