I realized the BCS is better than a play-off, and decided it needed to be defended. I'd love your input.

Hey Burgess, I'm stopping the Big 12 Power Rankings. It's too much work for me to do with not enough results and interest compared to the national poll that Trey is doing. Thanks for your contributions, and hopefully I'll see you at the Big 12 title game!

Hey Burgess, either email me your power rankings for this week or send them to me on my board. I don't have your email anymore so just send them to me at ptfb79@mizzou.edu, or like I said post 'em for all the world to see. Lol, either way get them to me by Tuesday at the latest.
