Will BCS concede to a playoff?


iconI am very pleased to read this.

Conceding "we made a mistake," the head of the BCS said an NCAA basketball tournament-style committee might become part of the selection process next season -- reducing the possibility of a split national championship in football.

Big East commissioner Mike Tranghese said Sunday several issues will be discussed in the coming months, including eliminating computers from the selection process and adding an extra Bowl Championship Series game. [...]

As for a playoff: No chance. Tranghese said college presidents won't allow BCS leaders to even discuss it -- even though a playoff would likely generate more revenue than the current 28-bowl system.

"If we could blow up the bowls and have a full-blown playoff system, just see how much money we could make," he said. "But it's not about money. It's about providing a lot of kids with a chance to play in a bowl."

Tournament yes, playoff no? I don't really get it, although Sally Jenkins does. Still, some guys are dreaming of righting the wrong this year. Is an LSU-USC title game impossible? Definitely not.
