AUSTIN – A Texas lawmaker is getting serious about his bid to break up the Bowl Championship Series.
Last week, Rep. Corbin Van Arsdale, R-Tomball, filed a nonbinding House resolution urging the abolition of the BCS.
On Thursday, he filed a bill that would prevent any state-supported school from Texas from participating in a BCS game. Texas played in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1 and beat Michigan 38-37. It was the Longhorns' first appearance in a BCS bowl.
His bill banning a Texas school from the BCS would take effect if four other states pass similar laws.
