Game was at SMU, the Methodist are not know as drinkers and the Rice fans where probably looking for Merlot and cheese platters. You are confusing Methodists with Baptists Closet drinkers

exactly!!!! I don't mind the bowl system but just go to a full bore playoff system with 16 teams and incorporate those 15 playoff games into the existing bowls! 16 teams is terrible. 1 vs. 16, 2 vs. 15, 3 vs. 14, and 4 vs. 13 most likely blowout games that have lackluster attention. 12 teams makes the most sense. Give the top 4 teams a first week "Bye". 5 vs. 12 6 vs. 11 7 vs. 10 8 vs. 9 2nd week Quarter final 1 vs. Lowest seed 2 vs. Next lowest seed 3 vs. Next lowest seed 4 vs. Highest seed left. 3rd week Semifinal Highest seed vs. Lowest seed Next highest seed vs. Next lowest seed 4th week National Championship This format truly mixes it up and may the best team win! The problem with twelve is you still have voting to pick the top four to get the tremendous advantage of a first round bye. For that reason I prefer sixteen. Play it all out.

I will say the name change has helped a tad with that image in addition to UTSA and UTA becoming the schools that UT dropouts or probationary admission students go vs SWT back in the day. Being an A&I alum, I miss those days A&I and SWT were rivals. Both stadiums would sell out for those matchups, even when SWT left the LSC and went to Southland. Itβs was even sweeter to bet them after that which the Hogs did many times.

Top 4 Top 12 Top 16 is all still from AP/Coaches/BCS voting. Why not give an incentive for the Top 4. A bye week.

That is a cop out on Florida State players. They didn't want to get embarrassed by Georgia! And Number 17 will cry that they got left out... Can't please everyone. And since the NCAA is not like the NFL, NCAA teams do not play in two conferences and four divisions in each conference. So it will always be a "Vote In" process for the Top 4 or Top 12 or Top 16.

With 16 you can be pretty certain no top contenders are left out or got screwed by voting or first round bye advantage. I fully understand FSU's protest. Georgia has a recent loss.

42-3 Georgia at the half.
The Arizona bowl is a better game. Toledo 10 Wyoming 6 at half.
