On the eve of the BCS National Championship game, part of the ESPN establishment is actually recognizing today that USC will not be a “three-peat” champion if they beat Texas tomorrow night.
“LSU won the title two years ago. It”s disingenuous, it”s cheap and it”s a marketing ploy to try to call this thing a “three-peat” “, said Erik Kuselias on The SportsBash just now. Apparently Mike Golic took Lee Corso to task this morning on the “three-peat” thing as well.
Kuselias said Corso had no answer to the logical question: How can you call a team that didn”t make the BCS title game the “national champion” – because they were the AP poll champion – when the AP was part of the formula that determined the BCS title game teams?
I doubt logic will get any traction here, but it”s good to see somebody in the ABC / ESPN / BCS machine standing up for the truth.
