Funny BCS Story

Stolen from multiple places on the internet:

I certainly know this isn't original and I realize it's not a good year for me, of all people, to complain about the BCS.. but the system definitely needs help.
Also, why isn't Russia getting more love in this. They beat Germany too.

After determining the Big-12 championship game participants the BCS
computers were put to work on other major contests and today the BCS declared
Germany to be the winner of World War II. "

Germany put together an incredible number of victories beginning with the annexation of Austria and the Sudetenland and continuing on into conference play with defeats of Poland , France , Norway , Sweden , Denmark , Belgium and the Netherlands . Their only losses came against the US and Russia; however considering their entire body of work--including an incredibly tough Strength of Schedule--our computers deemed them worthy of the #1 ranking."

Questioned about the #4 ranking of the United States the BCS commissioner stated "The US only had two major victories-- Japan and Germany . The computer models, unlike humans, aren't influenced by head-to-head contests--they consider each contest to be only a single, equally-weighted event." German Chancellor Adolph Hiter said "Yes, we lost to the US ; but we defeated #2 ranked France in only 6 weeks."

Herr Hitler has been criticized for seeking dramatic victories to earn 'style points' to enhance Germany 's rankings. Hitler protested "Our contest with Poland was in doubt until the final day and the conditions in Norway were incredibly challenging and demanded the application of additional forces." The French ranking has also
come under scrutiny. The BCS commented " France had a single loss against Germany and following a preseason #1 ranking they only fell to #2." Japan was ranked #3 with victories including Manchuria, Borneo and the Philippines.

Overall, I love the blog. Large props for the entertainment value.
I am posting this comment to avoid stabbage by the Eyekester.

Poland gets no love for being defeated in something like 28 hours. New Mexico State didn't lose that bad!

No discussion of the BCS, this month, is complete without thrashing Ohio State for getting a BCS Bowl with 2 loses.

Go Gators!
