Totally off topic, but I had to share. You guys, meet USF Sophmore from Brasil Ana Luisa.

You can follow her on twitter @Brazili_Ana. I highly recommend it. She is a very smart and funny girl.Along with her other more obvious attributes. Just trying to dispel all the fear of the playoff announcement.

Hello Ana Im BullNupe wanna know why they call me Beef?

Obviously, he isn't learning anything.

I'ma gonna go out onna limb here, but what I think is happening is that he's brushing one or more of the controls with his mouse as he moves the cursor into the text box, and doesn't care enough to fix it.

Room for more at large teams. If that is accurate, there would still be AQ for some of the BCS bowl slots which would continue as it does today. The real question is whether there still is a real or de facto AQ, and wheter the BE would have one.

The commissioners were very diligent in making sure each of the 11 FBS conferences would have access to playing in the semifinals and other BCS games. They eliminated "AQ" and "non-AQ" status at a meeting in April, so teams from any of the 11 conferences would be eligible to be selected for the playoffs by the committee. The commissioners are also considering adding at least one more BCS bowl (and possibly two) to create more at-large berths for teams from outside the bigger conferences. It's believed the new Champions Bowl, which would pit a Big 12 team against an SEC team, might be part of the BCS rotation.

If that is truly the case, just create one more BCS bowl game for the Big East and Mountain West conferences. Then it's a win-win-win.

I heard on ESPN Radio that the SEC Commissh apparently stated to an aide that all of the schools and conferences that are not one of the elite top 5 conferences will be relegated down to the FCS where they belong.

If true then you can bet that there will be a mad scramble as every Big East team makes a mad dash to whore themselves out to the so-called elite top 5 conferences. I fear that the only way we can come out of this on top is if FSU leaves the ACC for the B12, but I really don't see that happening now that the ACC is included in that top 5.

2 Cents - My main issue is not losing the bowl games, personally I feel that the bowl system is corrupt given how the bowl committes force the invited schools to buy 20,000 seats each. 9 times out of 10 these seats are not sold, and the schools have to eat the $$, especially if your team travels outside of your region. My main issue is having a number of schools shut-out by the old guard who fear giving up ground to new programs like USF or Boise State.

While I love the bowl games and traveling to them, I can see where a playoff system that is similar to the NFL could be bennefical to college football more so then the current bowl system. Hopefully they don't make the mistake of copying the Basketball March Madness system where a bunch of schools play regional tournaments in neutral arenas.

in any event we will know where we fall in a few months time.
