The BCS championship debate
Reasons why Michigan should top USC in the BCS
- They defeated Notre Dame on the road by 26 points; USC won by 20 points at home.
- Michigan lost to #1 Ohio State, by three points in Columbus. In that game, the field conditions were horrible, and the team suffered because of it. The officials made a game-changing call in favor of Ohio State in the fourth quarter that sealed the deal.
- USC lost to unranked Oregon State.
- Nobody wants to see Michigan rematch Notre Dame in the Rose Bowl.
Reasons why USC should top Michigan in the BCS
- Their schedule includes more teams eligible for a bowl game.
- They haven’t played Ohio State yet.
The sports analysts claim that USC will jump Michigan today in the BCS, which I agree will probably happen. Clearly, college football needs a playoff system. Why not have Michigan play USC for the right to play in the championship?
