I know my post was Utah oriented... but I think there are some universal truths hidden in there that are frustrating as hell:

...This is the sixth year in the past 10 that the title has been in dispute under this cash-grab, fan-dis, monopoly that the BCS has created...

...we're calling our title the "national" championship because it actually includes the whole nation­—all 119 Division I schools—unlike the BCS, which includes 66. Yeah, the BCS somehow eliminated the middleman—the NCAA....

...In America, quality usually wins, not conspiracy. And there's a reason people usually enter into a conspiracy. It's money. ...

Its even more disgusting that Div 2 has a playoff; making any excuse for them to not come up with a Super Tournament even more hypocritical...

it's all about the money... and the chicken shits don't realize that if they structured it right... they would not only increase their fan base, but also make more money in the process. IMHO
