BCS bowl predictions with colin

Before I even begin, I don’t want to hear it. College football designed a championship system with the sole purpose of placating the sports talk radio and TV world, to give people lots of things to talk about. Furthermore, they drew up a system that purposely leaves out, statistically, the 3rd or 4t
