NCAA governs college sports, so why isn't it running D I-A bowl games?

Here's a simple way to throttle down the annual rants over the Bowl Championship Series. Let's put control of Division I-A postseason football where it belongs -- under the long arm of the NCAA.

Say what you want about the NCAA, but the folks in Indianapolis know how to run a postseason, and they damn sure know how to stage championships. They pull it off in every other sport from basketball to water polo, right? So the idea that the NCAA brass should butt out when it comes to I-A football -- and only I-A football -- is a questionable, outdated practice that needs rethinking.

Nice Aritcle. Fish tells it like it is! Money talks and the current BCS system hurts college football!!!

There is no true champion in d1a college football! USC would have beat LSU last year, no doubt in my mind!
