After 2 top-five teams lost this this week, The standings were shaken up just a little bit. A little school in Tampa is now the # 2 team in the nation. What? South florida is # 2 now?. You mean the Bulls, give me a break.
This is why the BCS standings is a joke and it's overrated. What happens if Ohio State plays South Florida for a national title. What station is going to what to pick up that game. Are you kidding me. Get rid of this thing already (BCS). You might as well put this game on PBS because no one is going to want to advertise it.
South Florida is not the second best team in the country. I have seen that and there is proof of that. I know a there's always one game that will tell you if a team is for real, but last week it wasn't that game.
Against Florida Atlantic University, a team who is ranked somewhere between 70-80 in the nation, came really close to knocking off the bulls. FAU forced USF to four turnovers, out-played them defensively and and scared the green and gold off of them.
Its time to get rid of the Bowl Championship Series standings and bring on the playoffs. Bring in the playoff format. Get the best eight teams in the nation and play in the format. Not only will we know who the best team is, but they will get to showcase that in multiple games.
To be honest with everyone, if the playoff format was to be in effect this year. South Florida would not get out of the first round. And if they did, they would get slap around in the second round, by a team like the Florida Gators, LSU Tigers, or Oklahoma Sooners. No chance what's so ever.
