Re: 2011 College Football: Occupy GameDay!

I suspect that would be the sticking point. It's one thing to lose the traditional match-up when one team is in the NC game, it's another to lose it so one team could have a chance to play in the NC game. While last years Rose Bowl game was an entertaining game, I would have much rather UW played (and lost to) Stanford than TCU. The Rose Bowl game is the Big10's only tie in with a Pac-12 team and I'd like to keep that as a meaningful match-up as much as possible.
As long as you make the BCS just the 2 semi-final games and the champ game and let the Rose keep it's traditional tie picking the top B10 and Pac12 teams that are not in the top 4 it might be something that can be negotiated. Do away with all of the autobids and just have it pick the top 4 from the BCS standings.
