BCS is a joke. Think about 2006. Michigan and Ohio State were #1 and #2. Michigan lost a heck of a game 42-39 in Columbus. Some of the locals here wanted a rematch. It WASN'T granted and I think they made the right decision. I would argue that Michigan losing by 3 on the road must have been closer overall to Ohio State that year than Alabama is to LSU this year given Alabama lost by 3 at home. Yet, for the title game, the SEC is what it's all about. For all the rest, it's purely about money. Whoever brings in the most money (aka travels the best) will get the best bowl invitations.
