From there the bcs bowls choose at large teams. So the random comment is factually incorrect.

And now with the 5th major bowl (the BCS Championship Bowl), the traditional bowl bids dont get interrupted.
I for one dont mind the system. A playoff will never happen so people need to accept that. A few adjustments would be fine, but we cant get so hung up on the national champion. Maintain the tradition and keep the intensity and importance of every single game.
