2001
Bowl Analysis This year, there were (11) 6-5 teams + 5-6 North Texas to make it into the postseason;
while
(10) teams with 7 or more wins, including 9-3 Hawaii, were left out! Ask
yourself, why? BcS anarchy galore! There
are 117 total teams participating in Division IA 62 in the Big6 and 55 in
the Other Conferences plus the Independents (OCI). Of
all the teams in the Big6 with a winning record, ALL went to the
postseason except: -
Wake
Forest (6-5): 6 of 9 ACC teams were already in. -
Mississippi
(7-4): bypassed for 6-5 Alabama, and 8 of 12 SEC teams already in. -
UCLA
(7-4): refused invitation due to bowl arrangement as pay-to-play.
By
contrast, three Independents alone with winning records did not make it into the
postseason in fact, NO Independents made it into a Bowl.
The total number of OCI teams with winning records to not make it into
the postseason was 15! The BcS is a travesty, and that at its best! So
how many teams in these two separate groups made it to one of (25) total Bowls? Big6:
38 OCI:
12 And,
by the way, the number of OCI teams in one of the (4) big-payday BcS Bowls was
ZERO! But wait, here comes the
kicker: Total proceeds for all Bowls equal $160.9 million,
where BcS payouts alone are $108 million. OCI
Bowl Revenues:
$ 10.15 million
Big6
Bowl Revenues:
$150.75
million
This
means that the Big6 will receive approx. an astounding 94%
of 2001 Bowl payouts! The
very definition of the BcS is disparity and inequality and unfairness;
and this disparity is ruining the great game of college football.
Teams in the lower conferences simply cannot compete in such an
environment. BcS administrators are
destroying college football; and they have recently begun to reshape other
sports in their favor as well they MUST be stopped! What they do is so wrong!
So
tell me, When
will it be over? How
soon? How
far must they go? With
no regrets, no compassion, they
only know hit and run. So
our sadness turns to rage
