| Bowl system needs championship game
i FROM THE
j SIDELINES
BY JAYSON JACOBY
another college football
season gets cliitiT to that
all important date of Nov
17. wlii'ii thu various bowl bids
arc sent out, the controversy
iieglns anew over the fairness ol
the current system used to de
termiiie the national ( hampion
The arguments haven't
changed much Proponents of
the howl system respond to
i ritu ism by asserting that
most years, anyway a clear
national champion emerges by
virtue of a superior re< urd
Opponents of the bowl Ms
turn dispute this claim, point
Ing to sui ti y ears as MiH-1. w hen
Brigham Young went 1 1 0 and
was named national champion,
angering many people who felt
BYf' s Western Athletic Confer
erne schedule was so much
weaker than that of other na
tional i (intonders such as Mi
ami (Fla ) that the Cougars' un
blemished record didn't really
mean mm h
Ami then there are the years
wiu-ii The Associated Press and
the t !mted Press International
polls don't agree on a national
r hampion. in wdm h case the
NCAA reiogni/es co-chatnpi
oils That pist doesn't cut it
w ill) most r allege football fans
It happened pist last year
when Colorado, which didn't
lose a game hilt was tied once,
was named co-champion with
undefeated Georgia Tech
Those two teams should have
played each other, rather than
far ing other teams in separate
bowl games Co champions is
an oxymoron, anyway
It could in- even worse this
season, as the top three teams
Florida State, Miami and Wash
tngton are all currently undo
leated Florida State and Miami
will play Nov lfi. but it ap
pears very likely that two of
ti. trams will finish
ih<- season undefeated mid
ranked first and second
i i'.is would sr! up .1 ( lassie
national championship garni?,
iiul hi-i iiu'so of the archaic irovvl
system, which would lock IV
cifu !0 champion Washington
Intel the Komi Bowl against the
Big-io Conference winner, it
can t happen l-lorida State and
Miami are Ixith independents,
and tlie winner of their show
down will likely plus in the
Sugar or (irange Howl
Then the national champion
will either be determined when
one of the two teams loses its
bowl game Or like last year,
they might both win. resulting
in another co-championship
and funs across the country
talking for years about which
team would have won the
head to head battle
College football doesn't need
that kind ol ambiguous, tut
satisfying ending The NCAA
doesn't use such a system for
basketball, and the professional
sports certainly don't, either
The bowl system certainly
shouldn't lie abolished that's
not the point Hut the first- and
sis ond-ranked teams at the end
of the regular season should
meet m a playoff to determine
the national i humplon It's the
olds way a true champion can
be determined
Hasebull fans this past Week
have been treated to one of the
greatest World Series battles in
history Five games were one
run affairs, and four, including
Sunday night's 1-0 game seven
triumph by the Twins, were de
cided on the hist pitch of the
game Both are Series records
But even more improbable
than Kirby Puckett's 11th in
ning homer to win game sic,
even more unbelievable than
Series MVP )ack Morris' mas
terful domination of the Braves
in game seven, were the contri
butions of thi- so-called "little
guvs” from both teams
i he one who will be remem
bored the longest is probably
Twins' pinch-hitler Gene Lar
kin. who won the Series by
driving in Dan Gladden Larkin
had balled only three times in
the first six games
But the biggest surprise had
to be Atlanta second baseman
Mark l.emke. A lifetime 225
hitter, l.emke led the Braves
with a -117 batting average for
till' Series He won game three
with an KOI single irv the 12th
inning and scored the winning
run in game four after hitting a
triple l.emke then had two
more triples in Atlanta's 1-1-5
game five rout
l.emkeV heroics were defi
nitely a source of inspiration
for "little guys" everywhere
()ne big guy who has recently
been brought down a little is
Mike Tyson A lew weeks ago,
Ijurr.iLI sports reporter Dave
Charbonncau wrote about Ty
son in this column, coming to
the i (inclusion that the former
heavyweight champion was a
"jerk ' Well, it appears that this
particular jerk has earned his
pisl desserts
Tyson's championship bout
with hvander Holyfield, which
had been scheduled for Nov 8,
a.ii canceled last week alter
Tyson injured a rib during a
sparring session With 1 yson
scheduled to face rape charges
in January, it doesn't appear
likely that the Holyfield-Tyson
light will over happen
Now either 'Tyson was feeling
less than confident about Ills
upcoming bout with Holyfield,
and decided to get out while he
could, or he needs to gel weak
er sparring partners In which
case he should probably con
sider himself lucky, anyway.
Besides, the jerk doesn't need
the money
