No different from previous national champions.......how often, if ever did the AP 1 and 2 play each other in bowl games for the national championship?

If you were the #1 team going into your bowl game and you won, you were going to win the national championship. What exactly was the debacle?
With how the bowls used to be, no team was eliminated at a chance for that fake championship before the season even started.

I loathe the BCS because it denies almost half the participants from ever getting a shot based only on conference affiliation.
