From an article posted today;   Southeastern Conference commissioner Mike Slive expects the BCS executive director to ask the commissioners to consider lifting the two-team per conference limit in the Bowl Championship Series. Slive and Texas A&M president R. Bowen Loftin spoke on a conference call with reporters Tuesday about the Aggies’ move to the SEC. Slive was asked about the possibility of the BCS changing its rules to allow more than two teams from a conference to play in the five most lucrative bowl games in a year. He said BCS executive director Bill Hancock wanted to speak with the commissioners of the 11 major college football conferences about a number of issues, the two-team limit expected to be among them. In an email to The Associated Press, Hancock declined to discuss Slive’s comments or elaborate on what other possible changes to the BCS he’d like to see the commissioners address. “The commissioners are committed to making the BCS the best it can be,” he wrote. “It’s very good now. Just what ‘making it the best’ might entail will be evaluated in a thoughtful and deliberate process over the next six or eight months.”   Oh yeah, this is exactly what college football needs, half the teams in the BCS bowls from the same conference.  What a bunch of egotistical **bleep** to even think about such a thing.  We hear all the time how great the SEC says the SEC is, and now Slive wants the BCS to drink the kool-aid as well, and what is more dangerous is that the BCS Retards are stupid enough to do it.  Yes the SEC is good, but they already have a championship game for the two best teams which determines the outright champion, so why would we need 3 or 4 SEC teams in the Bowl Games?  One point that is being missed here is the money, and we all know that college football is about the money, so we want to take the money away from one or two conferences so that it can be dumped into the SEC who already gets maximum payoffs by being in the championship game as well as one other BCS Bowl.  So which conference gets tossed?  Do you toss the Big East Champion and keep Boise State?  Do you toss Boise State?  If the ACC has a down year, does their champion get tossed?  Same for the Pac12 or the BIG12 and Big10?  Where do you draw the line?  I am not degrading the SEC, I am however degrading Sliva for even thinking this way.  As we have said on here many times, and this is a perfect example of how GREED has and will continue to ruin the game of college football.  I am totally disgusted with this…
