Clamor for a playoff built steadily from 2000 to ‘04, as a series of worthy teams — Oregon, USC and Auburn — were excluded from the title game. But in ‘05 the blind squirrel found the acorn; the BCS got it right. No. 2 Texas’ 41-38 win over top-ranked USC was one of the best college games ever.

There will be those who say the unpredictability of this season and of the BCS is what made college football so compelling in 2007. I’d say the BCS is what made this season so embarrassing. How can you have these delicious scenarios without having a playoff to resolve them on the field?
