2000 Tour Notes:
"The 9-9-00 Nebraska vs. Notre Dame game is a prime
example of the severely flawed BcS Overtimes arrangement. This truly exciting
contest at the beginning of the season was 21-21 at the end of regulation - and
should have remained as such in the regular season - thereby allowing both
teams, in that hard fought and rare and somewhat satisfying battle between two
teams refusing to lose, to continue to stay in contention for and vye for the
National Championship. The BcS overtimes arrangement emphasizes red zone offense
vs. goal line defense, as opposed to the fundamentals of the game: field
position, team offense and defense, and special teams, among others.
Furthermore, the present overtimes configuration provides an unfair advantage to
the winner of the coin toss with a 63 plus winning percentage. Outcome of the
game: Nebraska wins the overtimes coin toss and wins the game with a touchdown
after starting at the 25 yard line, after Notre Dame is only able to muster a
field goal. Ramifications of this overtime: Notre Dame's hope and hunger to
continue their winning traditions and bring a National Championship back to
South Bend this year are all but shattered. As stated in another section,
overtimes in the regular season are completely unnecessary. Both of these teams
played a terrific game and deserved to walk off the field with that dignity.

Florida @ Tennessee
Why should the loser of this annual, early-season grudge match be essentially
eliminated from a run at a national championship?
Reducing a team's spirit and motivation by, in most respects, negating the
possibility to attain the ultimate goal of a National Championship is just
another of the innumerable weaknesses, disadvantages, and flaws of the current
college football system.
The above would not happen with the one and only system that both matters and
works: National Championship Bowl Tournament (NCBT). Teams are
encouraged to schedule capable and worthy opponents throughout their entire
season, including early contests - and although it is a battle to make it to the
postseason of the NCBT, one loss will not eliminate the chances of ultimately
winning a national championship - because...
Champions are determined on the field!
