The Spectacle Blog
The House Commerce Committee is looking at the Bowl Championship Series today. That's right. College football. Led by Congressman Joe Barton (R-Texas), the committee will attempt to nag bowl officials into a playoff format.
Their justification? That college football's a big business and sometimes the BCS choices end in "sniping and controversy." Typically, we call that winning and losing.
C-Span plans to air the spectacle sometime tonight after 8 p.m.
