We’re just a few days away from the 14th BCS National Championship Game and the rematch between #1 LSU and #2 Alabama. With their first meeting a 9-6 defensive slugfest and the rematch dimension, the anticipation and buzz for the actual game has been somewhat tempered.

It’s the habitual and occasionally nauseating debate in college football: the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) and what needs to be introduced to “fix” college football’s postseason system.

If you spent any time watching college football this fall, then chances are pretty good you’re familiar with some guy named Robert Griffin III. You have heard of him, right?

Bowl games are weird animals. The stakes are relative for their participants. So often the outcome hinges on motivation. The coaching carousel can throw teams out of whack as well, too. Even so, bowl game records tend to be a fallback at this time of year for measuring conference strength. (Why everyone cares about conference strength […]

We’ve all watched those games where, if it wasn’t for the scoreboard we’d automatically all know who was winning and assume it was by a fair amount.
