You look at the polls and you see what the Polls are and it is a JOKE.. Should Ohio State and LSU be 1 and 2 I dont think so.. You have a team like Hawaii that has a perfect season now you have a computer making the decesions. That is why there should be a playoff and I see most people agree with that.. What does everybody else think about Hawaii is it a fluke or just to easy of a schedual or are they good???????????? I think Oklahoma and Georgia should be in the BCS title bout!!!!:BigA: ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!!!!

The best team they played all year long was easily 4-8 Washington.

In that game, they trailed for about 55 minutes, and had to come from behind against a 28-7 deficit to win. And oh yeah, they needed a goal line stand after Washington went 70+ yards in the final 40 seconds just to prevent overtime.

I think that says about all you need to know about Hawai'i.

Just because you are undefeated doesn't mean a whole lot if you haven't played anyone. And honestly our win over Vanderbilt is more impressive than Hawai'i's win over Washington. At some point, just not losing isn't enough, you have to actually beat some quality opponents, and Hawai'i has not done that.

Hawaii should go IMHO. They beat every team they played. They are the only team in the country that can say that. They can't help Washington finished 4-9, they scheduled a Pac 10 school thinking it would help their strength of schedule. Join a better conference? They can't do that either, they are in the WAC. I'd be willing to bet they'd join the Pac 10 in a heartbeat if they could, but the Pac 10 doesn't want to expand. They won every game they played in, what else do you want them to do?

Hawaii deserves a shot before a 2 loss team.
Their non-conference schedule included two Division 1A (FCS) teams that finished at or near the bottom of their conferences, the worse team in the Pac-10, and worst team in the Mountain West. They beat one good team (Boise State) and that was in Honolulu. Do you recall how "fair and balanced" the refs were the last time we played in Honolulu?
 
I just as soon Hawaii go as anybody with 2 losses, especially if they are undefeated, which they are. What does it matter really, this system is flat not working and what better way to hammer the point!!! Remember BYU? Look it up! When the fans say enough is enough and stop going to the BCS games then change might occur! And thats got as much chance as a snowball in hell!!!

We will just have to deal with it! Maybe the polls with split decisions is better and it can still happen. The AP Poll last I heard can vote whoever they want! Go Dawgs!!!

Play a schedule that's not a joke. They can't do anything about the conference, but they CAN schedule good OOC games. In my opinion, the ONLY way Hawaii ever gets any consideration is if they schedule at a minimum, 2 powerhouses every year. They HAVE to make up for the poor conference they're in. Heck, I think a 3 loss Florida team is a much deserving as Hawaii is this year. Hawaii made it's bed (scheduling), now they have to sleep in it. I watched the Washington game last night....wasn't terribly impressed. Meanwhile teams like USC, OU, and LSU all looked good against GOOD teams.

Hawaii is very over ranked. How can you put a team in the top ten when they haven't played a decent team all year? They need to schedule and beat some good teams before any talk of them deserving a shot at anything. If Troy and other schools can schedule tougher teams Hawaii can if they wanted to but they only want to play creampuffs so they can win all their games.

Which basically means the only way that will happen is the following; LSU and OSU both play very poorly and the game is extremely close. Then, OU BLOWS OUT it's opponent in the Fiesta Bowl. That's the only way it would happen at this point and that's a far stretch at best.

This is why there MUST be a playoff. This season, Ohio St., LSU, USC, Georgia, Mizzou, WVU and yes, an undefeated Hawaii team, all deserve to get their shot. Prove it ion the field, not in the polls or on the computers.

You can make these arguments about anybody

LSU lost to Arky who lost to Bama who lost to Louisiana Monroe who lost to North Texas who lost to Florida International in the regular season finale to finish 1-11!, etc... etc...

Ohio State lost to Illinoi who lost to Iowa who lost to Iowa State who lost to Northern Iowa, an FCS school

Hawaii lost to um... no one . . .

I posted it before, a 10 team playoff, with the top 6 getting a first round bye
