Playoff Guru: The Only 'Playoff' That Works
http://bcsguru.blogspot.com/2009/04/only-playoff-that-works.html
Monday, April 20, 2009. The Only 'Playoff' That Works. This proposal has been slightly amended after great feedback and additional considerations. I believe this is now the most plausible proposal to modify the framework of the BCS.). The BCS annual meeting is set to take place next Monday in Pasadena, where the commissioners are expected to hobnob and mostly wring their hands before declaring the BCS a "success.". It doesn't have to be this way. The Guru has devised a "playoff" scheme that creates minim...

Playoff Guru: Breaking Down Russell Athletic Bowl
http://bcsguru.blogspot.com/2014/12/breaking-down-russell-athletic-bowl.html
Friday, December 19, 2014. Breaking Down Russell Athletic Bowl. As we inch closer to the December, 29th Russell Athletic Bowl between the Oklahoma Sooners and the Clemson Tigers, the ticket prices are bound to change. For this game, we are starting to see a drastic decrease in the prices of tickets to the game in the home of Disney World. According to Totally Tickets. This decrease in price could be due to the loss of Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson. Jesse Lawrence is the CEO of TiqIQ.com. The Guru is...

Playoff Guru: Big 12: Think (Hard) Before You Act
http://bcsguru.blogspot.com/2014/12/big-12-think-hard-before-you-act.html
Wednesday, December 10, 2014. Big 12: Think (Hard) Before You Act. The worst thing the Big 12 can do is going for the quick fix. When no such "fix" is needed. The Big 12 got left out not because it didn't stage a conference title game or because its conference champion didn't play a 13th game. It got left out because the selection committee proved to be no more discerning than the average fan who watches too much ESPN. Even as the Buckeyes labored to beat Big Ten also-rans Indiana and Michigan, Herbstrei...

Playoff Guru: When Little Guys Still Had a Chance
http://bcsguru.blogspot.com/2014/12/when-little-guys-still-had-chance.html
Saturday, December 27, 2014. When Little Guys Still Had a Chance. SAN DIEGO - Thirty years ago on this field, in this bowl game, BYU became the last team not from the current power five conferences to win college football's mythical national championship. We pay tribute to that occasion because something like that probably will never happen again. Even after winning the game, 24-17, BYU had to sweat it out for 12 long days. Because of their narrow victory, there was rampant speculation that the Couga...

Playoff Guru: First Final Four in New Era
http://bcsguru.blogspot.com/2014/12/first-final-four-in-new-era.html
Saturday, December 6, 2014. First Final Four in New Era. The College Football Playoff selection committee has some hard choices to make. Starting Friday night in Santa Clara, Calif., and ending Saturday night in Indianapolis, every one of its top six teams from last week won. And it only has four playoff spots to dole out. But forget the canard that the selection committee looks at the entire picture from scratch. According to Jeff Sagarin). Despite Ohio State's impressive thrashing of Wisconsin, the pro...

Playoff Guru: SEC Is History. Duck Dynasty to Begin?
http://bcsguru.blogspot.com/2015/01/oregon-florida-state-rose-bowl.html
Thursday, January 1, 2015. SEC Is History. Duck Dynasty to Begin? PASADENA, Calif. - They could've saved us all that trouble and just had the Rose Bowl the way it's meant to be played - Pac-12 vs. Big Ten in the Granddaddy of 'em All. Instead, Oregon and Ohio State will face off in Jerry World, a palace built for pro football, to settle who gets the biggest prize in college football. Alabama's loss to Ohio State signaled the end of an era as the SEC will be absent from the national championship game for ...

Playoff Guru: What Is the Real Magic Number? Try 6
http://bcsguru.blogspot.com/2015/01/what-is-real-magic-number-try-6.html
Monday, January 12, 2015. What Is the Real Magic Number? The first College Football Playoff is rightly declared a success. After Ohio State's emphatic 42-20 victory over Oregon, we can finally proclaim a national champion in college football that's more substantial than mythical. It's not gonna happen. Not anytime soon. And probably not going to be eight teams and certainly never 16 teams. College football's postseason attendance scheme is like moving small cities from place to place. Each major bowl...
