对CollegeFootball最大的争论，BCS or PLAYOFF GOOGLE了一下：
Arguments For
• Creates a playoff atmosphere throughout the season.
• Uses the traditional college bowl games
Playoff
• Decides the better team in head-to-head competition.
• Would be easy to implement using the current system of Bowl games.
• Would create a lot of interest and excitement in post-season play.
• Would eliminate, or at least limit, doubt or controversy.
• The majority of fans seem to want it.
• A playoff system seems to work just fine in I-AA, II and III.
• It's the only fair way to decide who the best team is.
• Adding another Bowl game to hold a true national championship game would generate millions of dollars.
Arguments Against
• Allows the National Champions to be crowned based on statistics and personal opinion.
• Produces a controversial champion as often as it produces an undisputed winner.
• One off game can eliminate a team from contention.
• Smaller non-BCS conferences are at a disadvantage.
Playoff
• Would diminish the value of the regular season.
• An already-long season would have to be extended.
Would take more time away from acedemics.

PETE CARROLL: BCS STINKS, WE NEED A PLAYOFF

BUT: …(引自：Geoff’s WhereIstand )
The BCS vs. Playoff debate…
…is not as unanimous a consensus as the common fan - or certain political officials - would like to have you believe. No doubt, a playoff is the majority - how else could a single dissension from the father of a public figure be the subject of a column headline in the New York Times?
After reading Harvey Araton’s aforementioned column, Case against a Playoff in Football, I thought I’d set the record strait. Examining our playoff issue, there undoubtedly remains a small but influential contingent of public figures who believe not only that a playoff is not the answer, but that the BCS still is:
