College Bowls

I'm not a close follower of college football, but let me get this straight…

On the morning of January 8 we'll all wake up, college football will be over and there will be at least two, maybe three, undefeated teams?

How is that a solution? We could have three of the top six teams in the country go undefeated, but one of them will be declared a "champion"? Based on what? Without a playoff, you'll never know who really was best (Alabama).

That said, the congress is working on legislation that would force the NCAA to implement a playoff system. This would be the worst possible way to get a good thing. The NCAA just needs to apply it's experience with college basketball to what they already do with smaller football schools (which have playoffs). They also need the movers and shakers to be convinced that there is still good money in a new system.
