Time for the annual “Someone said something stupid about the BCS” kerfuffle

I was going to write something about Ohio State President Gordon Gee and his obnoxious remarks about Boise State, TCU, and the BCS, but Mean Green Cougar Red covered all the of the ground that I would have, so I’ll just point you to him. I have two rooting interests in college football: The Rice Owls, and anything that causes BCS-related chaos. Someday, I hope to simplify this. I mean, I was forced to root for Alabama on Friday. Do you know what kind of a stain rooting for a Nick Saban team leaves on your soul? The fact that Boise State took itself out of the “national championship” debate this weekend doesn’t change the basic calculus of the situation. Sooner or later, something’s got to give, and it would be nice if the needlessly privileged like Gordon Gee began to grasp that reality.
