Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 876586, member: 874"] And with the BCS system that wasn't even the case often enough. The whole "body of work" thing was far to inconsistently applied. Each year it had a different definition. Also, with the lack of non-conference match-ups between major teams we had no way of knowing for sure who's body of work was actually the best. "This is the best conference." How do we know that? Is it because your two best teams beat teams that people assumed would be good but by week 9 had 4 losses? This rush to play so many conference games has taken away an aspect of college football that was great when there were so many independents, a variety of match-ups throughout the season. I know it'll never happen, but I'd love to see no more than 7 conference games and 5 non-conference games with some of those taking place after september (and I don't mean the fodder games that the big boys play before their rivalry games).
