The BCS bowl games have become a joke. It's January 7th and we still have bowl games to be played. Anybody excited for the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl or the BBVA Compass Bowl? These are the bowl games that have yet to be played. The BCS bowl ratings for this year have been down and this just goes to show that people aren't that interested anymore. It is my belief that a playoff system needs to be implemented.
Are you tired of the BCS bowl games?

If it weren't for the fact that Stanford played late and my participating in bodi's bowl picks thread, I would have lost interest by now. It started out as fun but now its really dragging.......kinda like the Ms Freeones contest 
:tongue:
Playoff now! no not the NCAA, playoff for the Ms Freeones contest!
I think naked mazola oil twister would be a perfect way to determine the winner.....no not Ms Freeones, the NCAA...jeesh...

I'm still enjoying the games, actually.
I'm not tired of BCS games, I'm tired of the 20 other bowl games noone cares about that put BCS games into the middle of January.
I'm all about the NFL i only follow college for the huge games, rose bowl if its even worth watching and national championship defintely. But its not like these bowl games are in the way or being dragged out in my opinion but thats maybe because i dont really watch college football. I watch professionals.
No, I'm not really tired of them.
I wish there was a playoff system....but until there is.... :dunno:
There have been some good matchups, even in some of the lesser bowls.
I'd much rather watch a college game than the often-less-than-100%-motivated, mercenary, Prima Donna "pros".

32 team tournament!!!
^American College Football.
According to Wikipedia, there were 35 bowl games this year (2010-2011)! Too many!
The worst thing, if Wiki is correct (and sometimes they aren't), is that 32 of them were on ESPN! Only three were on Network TV(ABC, CBS, Fox)! Even the Rose Bowl was taken off ABC and moved to ESPN. This is absurd.
Create two super conferences (PAC-20 and BIG 20) with all the top teams and have them play for the conference championships and then hold a National Championship game on January 1 at the Rose Bowl.
A playoff system won't work unless college football is realigned into super conferences with all the major programs in the super conferences.

I'm tired of them cause there's just so many and it's too hard to keep track of them. Who gives a crap about the New mexico bowl or godaddy.com bowl, I say there should be 10 bowl games for the top 20 ranked teams and maybe like 2 or 3 games for unranked conference champs. 20 plays 19, 18 plays 17 and so on. None of these bullshit matches like Oklahoma state and Arizona or Nevada and Boston College.
I preferred the system from the '90s. Back then potentially 3 or more Bowls had title implications, which made the bowls more exciting and important. You can't tell me interest would not go up in the BCS Bowls if we had the old tie-ins which would make each potentially impactful on the national title and preserve old traditions (and geographic tie-ins) which would attract more interest and fans.
Oh Good Lord, yes. The NCAA is a joke, and the whole bowl system is evidence of exactly what is wrong with the organization. But I suppose there are people who enjoy watching Southeastern Washington State play the ITT Tech School of Drafting and Design in the K-Mart Blue Light Special Bowl. :dunno:
change the question to "Are you a homo?" and you'd about have it.
