Yes, we would probably lose the bowl games if we did go to a playoff system even though some people said it would still work I seriously doubt we could keep them though. The one change I would like to see changes such as a better way to pick who plays in the championship game top make it more fair. The current system we have right now is full of holes and loopholes teams can exploit. If we could shore up some of these things I think the current BCS format would actually work out better then a playoff system.

 The Cleveland Cavaliers know that Lebron James could leave them soon for money, bright lights, and more opportunities in other avenues such as New York City and other places. Many teams are positioning them for a run at James and other free agents in 2010 and that is why Cleveland not making any trades is kind of interesting. Cleveland was trying to make trades for Shaq and Richard Jefferson, but nothing became of it. Now Shaq and Lebron together would had been a very interesting pairing and one that would have been tough to stop. Richard Jefferson was another player that could have helped the Cleveland Cavaliers as well, but a deal could not be worked out.

Jimmie Johnson extended his points lead as he won the race at Phoenix this afternoon. Johnson led 217 of 313 laps to stretch his lead to 141 points which means he has only to finish 36th or better at Homestead in Miami to capture his third straight title. Many people do not realize how tough that is too do. Winning three straight Nextel Cup Championships is really tough. if you do not believe that just go back to see how many teams who won a championship lost the following year.

What Jimmie Johnson is doing is something special and it seems him and Chad Knaus have a special bond and they know exactly what they are doing. They might just win number four next year if they keep going the way they have in the past. Look for Jimmie Johnson continue to win unless someone else steps up to stop him. I really do not see that happening anytime soon.

Well for right now Alabama and Texas Tech fans are really happy as they stand one and two in the latest BCS Standings, but how much longer will that last. Texas Tech this week must travel to Norman Oklahoma to take on the Sooners which will not be an easy task. The last two games for the Red Raiders were at home and that sure helps out a lot. Meanwhile Alabama has a SEC championship game with Florida waiting for them. What could be interesting about all this is Boise State and Utah could be the country's only undefeated and not make it. I look for Alabama and Texas Tech to lose somewhere down the line. If we have a bunch of one loss teams than the BCS will have to give a bunch of bad news to a lot of teams. In fact it should be very interesting. I am praying for a lot of one loss teams so eventually we can get rid of the BCS and put in a playoff system.

College Football over the last few years has really got crazy and this year it looks like that trend will continue. First up USC looks unstoppable against Ohio State and then they get beat. Other teams such as Florida, Georgia, Wisconsin also have got eat already this season. This means that every week we could have a new number one team. Right now Oklahoma and Alabama look like the cream of the crop, but that could change again after next week.

James Laurinaitis is the face of the Ohio State defense and he knows nothing less than a win at USC his what his Ohio State Buckeyes need. The Buckeyes have yet to be a top rated team when it really mattered and here is another chance for his team to do something about it. Chris Wells has been cleared to play so that helps out Ohio State as well. They will need all the firepower they can get against the USC Trojan defense that is very good indeed.

Ohio State does not have to take a backseat to them as the Buckeye defense last year was the best in the land and look to improve on a subpar performance against Ohio University last Saturday. USC meanwhile has had a week off and I really do not know if they will effect them a lot or will they be the USC team we know. I like Ohio State in this game as they cannot afford to lose this game where USC can. I like the Buckeyes by a field goal 27-24.

Yesterday when I read the short article about how Vince Young's mom came out and said he really did not want to play football anymore as he did not like the negative press he got. Now I guess it is time for me to chime in on this one. First Vince got a nice signing bonus and if he did not want to be booed then just retire and hand back the money of course he will not do that. This is not college football and you cannot hide away forever Vince Young you must be accountable and you threw an interception trust me a lot worse things will happen in your life than a turnover.

People need to stop protecting you and let you take what people throw at you. Sometimes life is not fair and we do not always get the deal we want, but we still must deal with it. If you do not want to play football that is fine as well. Just retire. This story is starting to get old about how you get down when people get on you. Either deal with it or just move on with your life.

After the rain stopped Carl Edwards used fuel strategy to hold off his competitors and win the Pocono Sprint Cup Race. This also pushed him into third place in the pointy standings. Edwards have been quietly making noise on the circuit, but in a good way this year. Tony Stewart finished second and Jimmy Johnson finished third. Kyle Busch finished 36th and watch some of his point lead shrink.

Kyle Busch still has the point leads and leads everyone with seven wins so far this season. Edwards now has four himself. The Chase this year should be very interesting as their is a lot of fast cars that could be the winner. This year it is real tough to choose a winner, but I would give Kyle Busch the nod right now.

Roger Goodell has reinstated Brett Favre so he is now able to head to Packers camp. According to various sources he will report Monday around noon. I am sure their will be a media frenzy around this. Favre is still considering two options that the Packers have offered and that is a 20 plus million to go back into retirement or a seat on the bench.

Now I really do not see Favre doing either one. With Favre coming to camp that can only be bad news for the Packers if you ask me. If Favre is their and he is a back-up and plays well in that role some teammates are going to question why start Rodgers over Favre. This will do nothing but divide the Packers which is something you do not want. I think the best option is just trade him and cut their losses. This way the distractions will be gone. trading him out of the conference is something I would look at.

USC and Ohio State also will be two teams that you will also have to watch out for. One saving grace for some teams is these two play each other early in the season so a loss by either one early will not hurt them too bad. Oklahoma is another team to look for as well. The bottom line is their are many teams who could take Georgia's top spot. Let us just sit back and watch the fun and talk about college football all season long. Below is the Coaches Poll.
