WASHINGTON (AP) – Advocates of a playoff system to replace college football’s Bowl Championship Series have formed a political action committee.
The Playoff PAC, launched Monday, aims to help elect lawmakers who support changing the system for selecting a national football champion. The complex system of computer rankings and polls often draws criticism.
The hope is that if there’s enough pressure from Congress, the BCS will voluntarily change to a playoff system.
One of Playoff PAC’s founders, Washington lawyer Matthew Sanderson, is a graduate of the University of Utah. Its football team was passed over for last year’s national championship even though it was undefeated in the regular season.
