Re: Big 10 BCS games...
I guess you would also have to make the argument that the B12 North doesn't deserve to play in the B12 title game either.

Texas Tech is being punished for playing in the best division in the country and Ohio State is being rewarded for playing in what is essentially the MAC conference with bigger stadiums. ESPN - College Football BCS Standings, NCAA College Football BCS Standings, NCAA Football BCS Standings Something tells me that OSU would have been chosen over Texas Tech as well. If we're going by the method of "teams that deserve it," K-State wouldn't have been left out all those times in the late '90s and early '00s...
The process has never been about who deserves it most and always about who brings in the most money. As soon as people realize this, well, I dunno - I still wish for a system that is meritoriously based and not financially. But the only way we get to a meritoriously based system is with a playoff, and the BCS is never going to go there voluntarily.

Until the actual system is changed so it's not geared towards money (which it will never be), that's just what we're cursed with. Oh my Gawd, someone understands. -
Re: Big 10 BCS games...
Maybe we should just get rid of all conferences, rankings, and bowls? Then there would be nothing to ***** about! 
Oh, and no matter the score, everyone gets a popsicle after the game.
It would work.
