Every year we watch the BCS get absolutely mutilated by coaches, analysts, and fans. This year will absolutely be no different. Besides being the most bizzare season (ever?) in the BCS era and beyond, this season has dealt us cards that are all too similar. None stand out. None dazzle you. None overwhelm you. In fact, none seem title worthy. In the whacky wonderful world of college football where you’re #1 one minute and one win from the title game to out of the BCS altogether the next (Missouri), this season has proven one thing and one thing only: Nobody’s great.

Can you blame them for a bunch of mediocre one and two loss teams and an unbeaten (Hawaii) that struggled mightily to take down the mighty Washington Huskies (last in the Pac10).

Is it their fault Georgia couldn’t win their division and couldn’t beat Tennessee and South Carolina? Is it their fault USC’s QB got hurt leading to what could be the greatest team ever as some claimed before the season faltering and losing to Stanford and Oregon?

Is it their fault (Kansas) the last undefeated BCS conference team lost? And who has Kansas beaten this year? Uh, no one. At least Mizzou beat BCS Rose Bowl participant Illinois (Wow, that has a funny sound to it!)

Do you blame the BCS for Pat White’s inability to stay healthy in two critical games (vs. USF, and Pitt)?

Do you harass the system because Oklahoma’s stud freshman QB Sam Bradford got knocked out against Texas Tech with the Boomer Sooners leading 7-3? Oklahoma, above anyone else, thrashed Missouri in the Big 12 title game (the number 1 team at the time)… Yes, they lost to Texas Tech, but I’m unconvinced that they’re not better then LSU.

Which leads me to those other Tigers who lost 2 games in 3 OT’s. They lost to two winning teams, and they have a lot of talent, and they won the SEC, but they have two losses. Is the SEC really that much better then the Pac10?z

And finally there’s Hawaii. Congrats! You beat Boise State. Grab yourself a cookie, you earned it playing the College of Charleston and Pac10 Superpower (o wait a minute it’s no longer the year 2000) Washington. You finished undefeated. Want a graham cracker? No? You want a shot at the national title game? Ha! You’re kidding right?

So uh, do we really blame the BCS? Or do we blame a season of mediority dooming the BCS to an impossible challenge: picking two teams that were basically unworthy for the national title game?

I don’t know about you, but I want to see Oklahoma-USC. For no other reason then, why the hell not?
