Ohio State president E. Gordon Gee: TCU, Boise State not worthy of BCS title shot - ESPN

Completely out of touch...Would have like at least follow up questions if he thought TCU or Boise State could be every team in the Big 10...because they could. But that what i come to expect, dont ask the tough questions...dont step on toes. I hate when these "traditionalist" lump all the smaller teams and just say they dont deserve it, when they dont know the talent on the team or coach staff. Because if the answer is yes, then there is no excuse not to play if they can compete. Right? Thats the right message to send to the student-athelete he mentions.
His comments come off as money-grubbing prick as well...but hey thats the status quo in this country. To say the bowl system works? please. Also would have like a question of why the Big 10 doesnt have a championship game, too p*ssy i guess will remain the answer, cause he know it greatly lessens the big 10 chance to go to the national game.

Because they are 1 team short of having a championship game. You need 12 for a Championship game. I believe that it is a rule imposed by the NCAA, but I'm not 100% sure.

Yes that is the rule. And no great defenses in the top 10? TCU, LSU to name a couple.
