My One Post on the BCS
Honestly, who cares.
USC was the top team for all of one week. The BCS exists to find the two best teams in college football and pairs them up to play each other. It's not a measure of "who the best team is on December 7th". It's a measure of the best teams overall. It's more akin to the NASCAR point system. In the BCS, one bad game doesn't knock you out of the championship picture.
Personally, I honestly think all the bitching abou the BCS is mostly due to the sportwriters not being able to pick the matchup they wanted this week. If you would have asked them two weeks ago who the best two teams in football were, UCLA would probably not have been the universal consensus.
One more reason why a playoff system makes sense, but the BCS is the best we're going to get,

Um, SC has been #2 for pretty much the whole year. They have a legit complaint based on the fact that they actually won their conference.
Frankly, I'm glad they get to kick Michigan's ass.
