Will NCAA D1 football get a playoff system?

For me, it's not about the money.

The money that schools and bowls make off of the games isn't relevant for me in any way. I make the journey to Auburn once a year (if I'm lucky), and I fork out the money for the overpriced nose-bleed seats. Sure, I'll buy a pricey hot-dog and soda, but that's about the extent of my monetary investment into the sport. The rest of the season I kick back on the couch and watch from the heated comfort of my home, and I doubt I will ever make that expensive post-season ticket purchase (unless my Tigers go to Nashville, or somewhere like that).

Week 13 College Football Preview

Last week: 5-0 Season: 22-16

This weeks picks: Penn St, Utah, Orgn St, TX Tech, BC, TCU, Boi St, E Car 

Its sounds like a broken record by now but yet again the game of the week is in the Big 12 south.  This game could decide who will end up in the National Championship game. Texas Tech will be going on the road for this big showdown unlike the other ones which were played in Lubbock, TX.  Tech still seems too not get any respect by the odds makers as they are a seven point dog to the sooners.  I wonder if the number two team in the nation has ever been such a big dog.   I think OU will win this game but I am take Tech and the point, hopefully this game will not disappoint like some many others this year.

Week 12 College Football Preview

Last Week: 3-3 Season: 17-16

Weeks Picks: Cinci (-4), Va Tech (+4), USC (-22), OSU (-3), Oregon (-3.5), BYU (-4) 

I have to say I am very impressed by the Texas Tech football team.  I really believe there would be a hang over from the prior week and lay an egg vs. Ok State but hey went out and proved they are an elite team.  They still have a couple more tough games but I am stating to believe they can run the table and be in the national championship game.  Then again I wouldn’t be surprised if they lost vs. Oklahoma in two weeks.

Week 10 College Football Preview

This Weeks Picks: Tex (-3.5), Mizzu (-20), FSU (-1.5), Oregon (+3), Fla (-5 ½)

Season:13-9 (59%)

           Yet again the top game of the week involves the number one ranked and undefeated Texas Longhorns.  This week they will be facing the high flying Texas Tech offense.  This will be no easy task defeating a really good Tech team which is also undefeated in the Big 12 so far.  If the Longhorns avoid the upset, they will have gone on to win one of the most grueling stretches of conference play I have ever seen.  I think they will be so motivate they will not have a let down and will cover the seven point spread.

Week 8 College Football Preview

Picks: Texas(-6), Kansas(-19), UCONN(+3), Alabama (-13), LSU(-2), Arizona(+2)

Last week: 4-4 

Wow that was one crazy week of football we witnessed last weekend.  There were tons of upsets and now with last night lose at TCU we have even fewer number of undefeated teams.  If last weeks games should us anything is that the Big 12 is really good and the SEC might be living off reputation more then actual ability
