Does Hawaii get a BCS bowl?

 

I totally agree. I must preface that I am a SEC fan,UK fan to be exact,and using UK as an example I think UK or most teams if not all SEC teams would have a better shot at going undefeated in the WAC then Hawaii would at having a winning record in the SEC, If you can follow that logic then its easy to see there is too much emphasis on going undefeated in a smaller conference. Remember Auburn several years ago when they went undefeated and did not get invited to the title game? If Auburn gets left out after going undefeated then I will have no sympathy for a WAC member like Hawaii. This is why I have long been in favor of an 8-team playoff system. They claim it is not plausible for the players and their class schedules but  March Madness is one of if not the best draw in sports and their "student athletes" seem to do fine despite the scheduling conflict. Having a playoff for college football could make December what March is for basketball. It is all about money and if they could ever think outside the box and not hide behind "tradition" the sport would be better for it. There is enough money floating around in college athletics to ensure all 8 teams would be substancially compensated. 8 team play off system equals 4 teams that otherwise would play in a bowl game but since their would still be a title game it only affects 3 bowls. By doing a play off of 8 teams you still can have all the same bowls they have always had and it actually would permit 6 other schools participate in bowl games besides those that made the playoffs. With each round of the play offs taking a week if you started them in December then a champion could be crowned without all this stagnant waiting on bowl games that always occurs waiting for January!
