I am a little behind on the news since I am home for the holidays, so I just read this piece from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram about the AP's withdrawal from the BCS. This is a pretty stunning development especially based on the language that is used in the article:
The Associated Press on Monday sent a "cease and desist" letter to Big 12 Conference commissioner Kevin Weiberg, the BCS coordinator, demanding that its Top 25 college football poll be removed from the BCS process.
The letter cited the BCS with "unauthorized and unlawful use" of the AP rankings and said the "forced association of the AP poll with BCS has harmed AP's reputation."
This should come as good news to college football fans, but the BCS contracts are in place for some time so I don't really think that this will precipitate any major change other than the possibility of having split national championships every year.
