My BCS Fix

8 teams – 8 Conf Champions. NO At-Larges allowed. If a school is not the conference champion. You will not be in the playoff. Notre Dame must join a conference. That way you know how to get in. No politicking…win the games and you get in.

Qualifying Conferences:
ACC
Big East
Big XII
Big Ten
Pac-10
SEC

The next 2 teams would be the Non BCS conferences. How the 5 conferences /army/navy would determine would need to be figured out yet, but give TCU’s & Boise’s a shot.

Have the Regular season ending on Thanksgiving weekend. Teams don’t need 2 bye weeks. Championship games on the 1st Saturday of December. Teams all have the same layoff.

The 8 teams play 4 games on New Year’s Day:
ROSE BOWL – Big Ten vs Pac-10
ORANGE BOWL – ACC vs Selection
SUGAR BOWL – SEC vs Selection
COTTON BOWL – BIG XII vs Selection

The selections would be taken in order of who’s already slotted team is ranked lowest in a new RPI similar poll. IE – If the Sugar has the #1 team, they get the last selection.

The winners would then play in Tempe/Fiesta Bowl on the weekend after Jan 1st. Those winners playing Monday Night in Tempe on Martin Luther King Day.

Schools don’t go back to school till after MLK day usually. They don’t have to worry about scheduling and travel then.
