BCS Headquarters — The Return of “Old Reliable”

When things get tough, just turn to ‘Old Reliable.’

Unlike Baseball’s 162 game snoozefest or Basketball’s 5 month regular season, in College Football, every week truly counts — a single loss can spoil a team’s National Title hopes faster than Tim Tebow can say a Hail Mary. And this year, with so many teams still undefeated this late into the season, the job of determining the rankings has become even more difficult.

Thankfully, Harold Billingsworth, the CEO of BCS Committee, has been in the game for years. And when he faces tough decisions like this, when his veteran leadership and seasoned track record can’t help him come to a definitive judgment, there’s an age old technique he uses to decide the rankings. He likes to call it “Old Reliable.”
