House Helps to Pick College Football No. 1
Quote
WASHINGTON – House lawmakers are gearing up for a vote as soon as next week on a bill aimed at forcing a national college-football playoff.

Approval of the legislation by an Energy and Commerce subcommittee would represent the most significant action yet by Congress in its oversight of college football. The plans for a markup next week – still tentative as of late Friday – appeared to signal growing congressional support for the idea, which President Barack Obama also backed during the 2008 campaign.

Maybe we could use computer models to pick Congress like the BCS does.

Good Point!  While the BCS isn't perfect, it is leaps and bounds ahead of the accuracy of Congress. Grin
