This petition was developed to demand the revision of the current BCS system by replacing it with a 16 -team playoff.
Whereas the BCS is an exclusionary and unfair system that only allows pre-determined teams from certain conferences to participate in revenue making events.
Whereas certain conferences within the NCAA corporate umbrella have become autonymous and are self-regulating beyond the rules of the NCAA.
Whereas the BCS is a subjective system designed to pit the top 2 ranked teams in the country despite not having a democratic system which allows a larger sample size to participate.
Whereas a 16 team playoff would be a true representation of the larger sample size of the 119 teams.
Whereas a playoff would eliminate the possibility of more than 1 team finishing the season undefeated and making claim to national championship.
Whereas a playoff would preserve the integrity of bowl games by incoporating them into playoff venues.
Whereas the educational impact of a playoff would not be compromised due to the event occurring during fall break.
As a student, athlete, alumni, parent, administrator and/or fan of college football, I demand that changes be implemented to incorporate a playoff system which includes the Top 16 teams in the country starting in 2011.
