What was better? BCS or old system?
I assume a majority of college football fans believe a playoff is an upgrade over the BCS and pre-1995 system, so I don't think there's much suspense in asking that question.

One of the arguments in favor of the BCS today, "it's better than the old system".

Is this true? Did you like the traditional system where it always was Pac-10/Big Ten in the Rose Bowl, Big 8 in the Orange, SEC in the Sugar, SWC in the Cotton? Or do you really think the new system is an improvement even though the computer rankings are bogus?

I agree I'll give BCS a slight nod but both are ridiculous.

Yeah the BCS is better just bc you can get a true national champion if all the cards fall in place like last year. The old system we would have had a tie last year.

Well, the BCS is just slightly less of a joke than the previous Bowl Alliance which was slightly less of a joke than the Bowl Coalition.

However, I will award a few bonus joke points to the BCS for adding that meaningless extra BCS game this year.

If everything works out the way the powers that be hope for, then you can an undisputed champion in the BCS system.

However, the drawback, IMO, is that it makes all other Bowl games about as relevant as as the postseason NIT in college hoops.

The old system was better.

The NCAA should tie the Bowl system to a playoff system.

The old system was WAY better.

Old system didn't accurately determine a national champion, was a kluge, but had some tradition on it's side.

The BCS is every bad thing the old system was, without the tradition.

Agreed, plus it was always fun to blame the National Champs debate on actual people.

I think the BCS is an upgrade over the old system. However, the BCS is nowhere near a perfect system. I'm in favor of a playoff. Something like the top 8 teams.

I think the BCS is better than the old system, but would still prefer some type of playoff. Players go through playoffs in Highschool, then if they make it, they go through them in the Pros. Why not in college as well?

The existing bowl games could stay in place as playoff sites/games on the way to the championship.
