How about scrapping the BSC system and use the Division 1AA system, or better yet, lets use the system that the High Schools use, that seems to set up a playoff quite easily.
Plus-one, NCAA split among major change on college football horizon - Andy Staples - SI.com
Big Ten's Jim Delany opposed to plus-one, OK with no AQ status - Andy Staples - SI.com
I think we will see a change to a plus one system and doing away with the AQ status in 2014. Seems Delany and the Big 10 are the only ones opposed to a plus one right now.

I'm all for a +1 setup but they should leave the AQ status and remove the up-for-large placements but at the same time if you keep AQ status those teams winning the conference should have to have a #15 or higher BCS Ranking and you shouldn't get into a BCS Bowl game unless you win you're conference +1 or not.
Leave a lot more than that out. There are a total of 10 BCS slots, and about that many 1A conferences. And not all of them are in the top 15.
With that criteria, all the slots won't get filled.
And? I guess the main one here is BCS bowls yes - Championship game no, must win Conf to play in National Championship but AQ's say as they are with a +1 system between the 4 BCS Bowls no matter what the ranking # is so long as you are 15th or higher.
Or why not just use the current BCS bowls Sugar, Orange, Fiesta and Rose for the playoff.... 8 teams play - then 4 teams play and then 2 but have them played well ahead of Xmas but the NC game can be played no later than Jan3rd.
We tried to do this years ago, the NCAA and university Presidents wouldn't have anything to do with it.
Maybe they should revisit it now.
Alabama is NOT the second best team in the country.
I'm willing to debate any SEC fans here on why I don't think Bama's worthy of a title shot.

Well I'll agree with that... first question from anyone of them would be who you think should be in their place and that is irrelevant.

So far you thought the bills would win their conference and you well be wrong so you think we well agree with what you think about this.
I tend to agree, since they already LOST to LSU, but seems to me that ship has sailed, and not certain what the point of the debate is anymore. Its a fixed system with plenty of bias.
It's not proven that LSU is better than Alabama, after all VPI is better than Clempson even after being spanked twice (at home and on neutral field). Therefore Alabama only losing in OT might be better than LSU 
On a serious note, I'd rather see Oklahoma St. play LSU, even though the LSU/Alabama game was an epic defensive show (and I think Alabama would whip Oklahoma St.), I'd rather see a different matchup than one already played.
Ideally a 16-team playoff like I-AA (Go Eagles!!!), II, III, etc..
