I happen to agree that the 2004 Auburn team should have been 1/2 NC's.
That said I'm unclear on the population center bit.

We have this thing called a "tie-breaker" which decides who represents the conference as our champion in the event of two or more teams finishing with the same conference record in first place. Also, conference games don't always "decide" the "real" conference champion. Take for example the Big 12. In 2005, Texas finished 8-0 in the conference and had already destroyed their conference title game opponent Colorado, who was a weak 5-3 in conference, 42-17 six weeks earlier. So why did an 8-0 Texas have to replay a 5-3 team they pummeled just six weeks earlier? To show how just much bull[censored] it was, they promptly went out and totally obliterated them, 70-3. There was absolutely no need at all for that game. Texas was clearly head-and-shoulders above everyone in their conference (and they further proved it by beating "unbeatable" USC for the national title). What if Vince Young had got hurt in that meaningless game? The Big 12 could've [censored]ed themselves right out of a national title...

Humm, I guess football teams never get better as the season progresses in college. The team you play in August is the same team you play in Dec?? Humm... Oregon played all the PAC10 teams the year FSU got the ACC bid?

I understand what is being said, but by that logic just give the Pats the superbowl ring now, end of story, no playoff necessary... Football is to great of a sport for teams to have to DEFEND the status of their national championship like LSU in 2003... It is a bit crazy....

Simple question. What year did the Big Ten get it wrong?
You keep flapping your mouth about how badly it sucks. Point out where the system failed. It sure better be close to how often the b12 system fails.
