And if they do this, then it will not be with the bowl system, may not be a part of BCS at all, have two separate champs again, three if you count the media poll champ too.

Yeah, bring back the AP and then we can add the FN college poll, that way we will have the AP, FN, Coaches poll and computers!!!! Yeah that will really clear this mess up!!! LOL

The BCS is replaced by the new 4 team system. There will not be a BCS championship game. They (the conference commisioners plus ND) haven't named the new system, but have said it won't be BCS.

Cotton Bowl (Jerry's World?) seems to have several opportunities. According to SI, the semi-finals will be rotated between 6 different bowl games. Cotton bowl seems like they could get into that rotation. Then there is the championship game itself. But the other opportunity is the SEC - Big 12 Champions Bowl. That game needs a home.

The Mountaineers will also be playing in states where the climate is hot and humidinstead of the cool fall temps of the northeast.

I read somewhere that if the BCS does not approve of it then they do not have to recognize it, and the NCAA is attached to the BCS for now, yeah, it is a mess. I also ready that the BCS does not have to ackowledge it either. Sounds stupid, but it is what it said.

Not sure what you're reading. The same conference commissioners that run/own the BCS are the ones making the change to the 4 team playoff.

Read it on espn, sorry, txespn.

They're probably just mad because they will have to pony up a lot more $ with the new plan. The bowl games will be seperate bids, the semi-final bowl games will probably be another price over and above the regular bowl games, and of course the championship game will be even higher.

SEOC as a "non-profit entity"? That strains credulity where JJ is concerned.

"non-profit entity"!!!! Yeah sure!!!! LMFAO!!!

It would be fun to see a bidding war break out. It would be a battle royale between the Cowboy dude, the Nike dude and the oil dude. It would fun to watch.

At least change the name of the game. Would be such a shame to bastardize the namesake of such a historically glorious game and landmark old stadium by branding it with the "J" word.

Why not bid for it? Gotta fill up the Death Star somehow. Not like the Cowboys are going to be playing games then...

Funny ... but true.

The Cowboys are a average team with a couple of superstars that give fans hope. I lost hope when Jimmy left after Jerry's sophomoric power grab.
