I personally don't have any issue with Congress removing the non-profit and tax-exempt status from college athletics, for the reasons that athletic departments are run with the specific intention to generate the largest amounts of profits possible (which flies in the face of non-profit organizations), as well as I'm not convinced that donations to athletic departments should show up on a person's 1040s anyway. What I do take issue to is Congress sticking its nose into how the BCS is operated and legislating changes to it because it's not fair to teams from the MAC and Sun Belt who have zero chance of ever making it to the BCS.
Do I think the BCS needs to be reformed to be more "fair"? At the very least, especially to the MWC and maybe to the WAC, who arguably deserve auto bids. I personally would prefer to see a playoff of some kind at the FBS level. But that being said, neither is it Congress' responsibility nor do they have the right to interfere with the BCS.
