The introduction of BCS Equality

Welcome to my blog, BCS Equality. The purpose of the blog is to promote Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS, formally NCAA Division 1-A) universities that are not a part of the Bowl Championship Series (BCS). I believe that the so-called "non-BCS" teams aren't given a fair chance in competing for national titles and any other advantages that are enjoyed by schools that compete in the six BCS conferences, the Southeastern Conference (SEC), the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), The Big East, The Big Ten, The Big 12 and the Pacific 10 (Pac-10). With the financial stakes involved in big time college football, not having an equal playing field within the FBS puts non-BCS schools at a huge disadvantage when it comes to recruiting, athletic facilities, operating expenses and overall exposure. I hope that this blog can provide a forum for making the argument that it's time to level the playing field by giving all the FBS colleges access to the riches of big-time college football.
