How so? While being 1 (or 2) mattered less with bowls, it still mattered. And, worse, the old bowls rarely set up a matchup that was 1 vs. 2, or even 1 vs. an arguable 3 or 4. 1 vs. 2 is the best matchup for determining the best team, and the BCS at least does a better effort of matching 1 vs. 2, rather than just nearly random assortments of games. Its shortcoming is picking who actually is 1 and 2, as this year.
