For all the BCS naysayers, this is the final rendition of the much controversial and sometimes maligned bowl championship system as the NCAA is turning to a four team playoff next year. This year’s national championship game will feature Florida State versus Auburn. The ACC versus the SEC. It’s only fitting that these two conferences represent the final straw as they also took part in the first ever BCS national championship game. But before we get to the much anticipated national championship game, there are 34 other bowl games that shouldn’t be overlooked.
