Aren’t you tired of powerhouse college football teams scheduling cupcakes just so they can make sure they get in a BCS game? If they are so good, why don’t they prove it by having a strong out of conference schedule? Who else has disgust for this way of scheduling in college football?
Why Do Powerhouse College Football Teams Schedule Cupcakes If They Are So Good?

I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. And every powerhouse team does it. It’s not like it’s just a few teams or one conference in particular…every single “Big 6″ team schedules these games, so in that way it’s kind of fair. And if a team were to play too many cupcakes and make it to a BCS bowl, they would likely lose to the other team that played better teams, thus the whole situation works itself out anyway. Not to mention that “strength of schedule” is one of the 3 major determining factors is making the weekly AP rankings & bowl selections…

Getting that cash money for scheduling cupcakes.
Also, no big team like Ohio State is gonna schedule out of conference games against teams like Texas or USC (University of Spoiled Children) or Florida because both teams know the consequences of losing. And neither team wants to take that risk. Kinda wimpy if you ask me, but hey, that’s why I’m just a fan and they’re on the sidelines on Saturdays.
Also, to mark on the BYU/Oklahoma game. Good for BYU, but it’s too bad they’ll never sniff a national championship hope. They better wish that every BCS conference team finishes with 2 losses.
That’s been scheduled far in advanced though, at least 2 years in advanced. If you take a look at wikipedia and their NCAA football schedule, you’ll see that there are games scheduled for the 2011 season already. I’m sure both programs knew they would be good, but I’m sure they didn’t envision this big of a game.
