In a perfect world, the BCS wouldn’t exist and the lead division of college football would be prepping for their own version of Selection Sunday (and I’d be married to Monica Bellucci, but I digress). Well, thanks to the guys at the Bama Nation forum (via Yahoo), we now have an idea about how such a bracket would look:
FWIW, I’ve got USC, Georgia, West Virginia, and Florida making the Final Four. How about you?

Let’s see, the BCS started in 1998. The first bowl game was played in 1902 according to Wikipedia, so it took 96 years to get to a two team playoff. At this pace, we should have a 16-team playoff in 2286. Or would that be too fast a pace for the NCAA to follow?
Entirely too fast. Who’s your Final Four, Dave?
Arkansas
USC, LSU, Florida, and Hawaii. The semifinal games would be awesome: Colt Brennan vs the Trojan D, Tigers and Gators in a rematch. Then Colt against Tebow in the final. The talking heads would be reduced to drooling and shrieking in the runup to the game. Even Mike Tirico might break out of his shell.
But no, people would rather see the Meineke Bowl and a bunch of 7-5 and 6-6 teams duking it out for, well, I’m not really sure. Do mad props from the Petro Sun Independence Bowl get you a edge over everyone else applying for a job at an investment bank?
