I will never follow FCS football until they have a sensible playoff system. People always say that the Utahs and Boise States and TCUs of the world wouldn't have a chance in the playoffs. But that's the whole point of a playoff . . . to give teams a chance to lose. It's unacceptable that a team can go undefeated through an entire season and postseason and not be crowned champion. It's unprecedented in any sport anywhere on earth.

True.
But at the same time, when you compare the strength of schedules to an undefeated TCU/Boise State to a 1 loss Big 10, Pac 10, SEC, ACC or other big conference school, it's really hard to fit TCU/Boise State in the National Championship game.
The problem with the current system is no big conference will schedule TCU, Boise State, etc... For reasons unexplained. Then the same big school complain that the little undefeated schools play no tough schedule.. It's a double standard in that aspect. If they evened out the scheduling of schools, the BCS would work WAY better, IMO.
Not to downplay the fact that a playoff system would be better.. I just think it was better before the BCS, and would like it that way more than anything else.
