THE BCS MANIFESTO

There are six ways to earn an automatic BCS bid.

The first is to finish top two in the BCS rankings, those two teams are gaurunteed a spot in the national championship game.

The second way is to be the champion of BCS conference, which includes: the SEC, the Big 12, the Big East, the Pac-10, the ACC and the Big 10.

The third way (part a) is to be the Champion of a non-BCS conference, which includes: the WAC, the MAC, the Mountain West, the Sun Belt or conference USA, and be ranked in the top 12 of the final BCS standings. However only one non-BCS team can earn an automatic bid, and if two teams both meet the requirements the one with the highest final BCS ranking will win the automatic bid. This rule will play out this year in the duel between MAC powerhouse Boise State and Mountain West Texas Christian University, and most likely TCU will win the bid if both teams remain unbeaten.

Part three B states that the the champion of a non-BCS conference can earn an automatic bid if they are ranked in the top-16 and are ranked higher than a BCS conference champion that received an automatic bid. For example, if SMU was the conference USA champion, and is ranked number 13 they receive a automatic bid if Oregon won the Pac-10 championship and was ranked 18 in the final BCS poll.

Penn State Continues to Commit Poll Fraud

The Big Ten is once revolutionizing the college football game, as figureheads all acrosse the Pennsylvania countryside have figured out off-season planning for a weak schedule is much more important then X's and O's.

Penn State was ranked 11th going into the highly-anticipated match against rival poll frauds Ohio State. Up to that point the Nittany Lion Nation hoped like hell that the 7-1 ranking would white out the strength of the schedule issues, and somehow they succedeed.

Joe Pa has yet to notch a win against a Big Ten opponenet with a winning conference record. The Big Ten wins include Minnesotta (3-4), Michigan (1-5), Indiana (1-5), and Northwestern (3-3).

Penn State has racked up non-conference wins against FBS Eastern Illinois, last in the Big East Syracuse, and two MAC teams: Akron and Temple. In fact Temple is the marquee win because they actually have a winning record.

In the two losses against ranked opponents Penn State has scored a total of 17 points.

The Pennsylvania State University is drawing the blue prints for how to make a New Years Bowl game with a bad team, everyone pay attention.
