How funny would it be if UCLA actually won?

If they don't want a possible loss to count against their record, they shouldn't take the chamionship game money.

One of the criteria they look for when choosing teams for certain bowls is will the fans travel? The NCAA has no incentive in giving you a playoff, they would lose money. Of the 119 division 1 teams, 66 will get to go to a bowl every season. (33 bowls)

College football is a joke. I'm all NFL.

Those 2 teams finished 8-4 and are going to bowl games within easy driving distance of their fans so I kind of see that ... does suck for WKU, though.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    "I wish you guys could be in the locker room and be on the practice field because it is so much different from what it has been in the past."
