BCS - Bowl Championship Series
FedEx Orange Bowl
FedEx Orange Bowl
The Bowl Championship Series was established before the 1998 season to determine the national champion for college football while maintaining and enhancing the bowl system that's nearly 100 years old. The BCS has quickly become a showcase for the sport, matching the best teams at the end of the season.
"In the 56 years prior to having the BCS, No. 1 (ranked team) played No. 2 only 14% of the time.
Sometimes we tend to forget that."

-- John Swofford, ACC Commissioner
