BCS: Bullshit Championship Series

Everyone says LSU should be in the championship game on the basis of their tough schedule. Um, has anyone actually looked at their schedule this year? It sucked ass. Its five road games (one less road game than most of the other deserving BCS teams this year) included joke games against Tulane, a 6-6 Alabama team, and two schools from Mississippi that may or may not exist. Their hardest road game was No. 17 Kentucky.
They lost that one.
Their biggest home win was Virginia Tech, in Week 2, when half of the Hokies team was still under suspicion of mass murder. Since when in college football does a win in September give you a free pass to the title game? LSU didn’t beat any team ranked higher than No. 9, And the two times they were handed the No. 1 spot for no good reason, they immediately choked it away. Yeah, that's a great resume.

Ohio State on the other hand managed to beat the living shit out of....nobody.
Youngstown State, Kent State and Akron are some first class powerhouses.
The highest ranked team they played was #23. So 3 weeks ago, Ohio State was #1, and lost to unranked Illinois, And now they get the title game by default, while Missouri, who lost to #9 Oklahoma, Is sent to the Cotton Bowl.
I'll pass on caring when the victory celebrations happen.

A lot of people for some reason are really pulling for LSU, just look at Ken Dorsey winning the top defensive player award for -64 tackles and 6 sacks? Umm yeah...

Then take a look at Hawaii undefeated….. yeah I know they probably aren't a tier 1 team, but without a playoff system no one will ever know.

Heck take a look at the other BCS bowl games...BORING! Other than LSU/OH I’ll be pulling Hawaii to embarrass the bulldogs, and ECU (yes East Carolina made it to a bowl) to beat the Blue field guys from Bosie State..

Oh yeah….the Canes still suck! Go K-Wright!
