[QUOTE="VanC, post: 478496, member: 3355"] The Big 12 champion (Oklahoma) is under contractual obligation to host the Fiesta Bowl. The ACC champion (Va Tech) is under the same obligation to host the Orange Bowl, unless one or both ends up in the championship game. Therefore a #3 vs #4 matchup wasn't possible this year. But you're right about the whole thing stinking to high heaven. Just about every year someone gets left out who can lay claim to deserving to play for the national championship. Remember the year Auburn went 13-0 and didn't get a shot? Or the year USC lost early and then ran the table? Heck, by the end of the season most everybody knew they were the best team in the country, but they didn't get a shot because of that one loss. I agree with those who are calling for some kind of playoff. Eight teams sounds about right. But it ain't gonna happen soon. Too many people are raking in too much money to change anything right now.
