CSU snubs the BCS

A lethargic Colorado State football program, especially after firing it's head coach Steve Fairchild, should be sitting on its hands. They should be remaining hopeful of a fresh start and a chance to make a run at bigger things like the other 120-plus Division-I teams.

Instead they have hijacked the most promising thing in 2012 and we're a little over a week into the New Year. 

The BCS National Championship has already been proclaimed the "Game of the Century" and matched up two of the greatest defenses that have accompanied a collegiate artificial surface that resides in the Mercedes SuperDome. LSU has already beaten Alabama, moot point. As the writers, coaches and computers found the Crimson Tide deserving of another chance; bless their hearts.
Instead of watching two teams, on the biggest of all stages in college, clash it out undeterred the Rams got their grimy hands in the proverbial pancake batter.

CSU sought out and hired the offensive coordinator of Alabama, Jim McElwain, only mere weeks before the BCS Championship. This is a shame, a travesty that can't be reprimanded but just as well should be. 

In interviews leading up the game McElwain has told reporters that he is getting stressed out and worn down by taking on the new position. (Although he will not fully take over as CSU head coach until after the game on January 9th) He is forced to dissect a defense that has Heisman trophy runner up and numerous other all Americans, and also be calling recruits for the Rams.

But it's not his fault, McElwain is doing all that one man can, without being Hancock-esque.
So while the "Game of the Century" may not, even probably won't be able to live up to the hype that is beside the point.

Even Boise State cannot disrupt the BCS the way Colorado State is right now.
