Last season when the Georgia Bulldogs were left out of the BCS title game Georgia lawmakers cried foul and wanted to pass a bill to eliminate the BCS completeyly since they were left out they wanted to cry about it and apparentlly these senators think that this is the most pressing issue in thier respective states.
Well enter the new crying and that is Senators from Texas now crying that there should a be a bill passed to eliminate the BCS. Look we have bigger issues to worry about then the BCS.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Taking aim at a BCS system he said "consistently misfires," a member of Congress planned to introduce legislation Wednesday that would force college football to adopt a playoff to determine the national champion.
