There’s a position open at your workplace.  For you it’s a promotion, one you want badly.  So you tackle every task put to you and accomplish them with accuracy and efficiency.  You’ve shown your ability and desire to perform in the offered position.

But your boss reviews your work and admits while you did more work and did it better than anyone else in the office, he’s decided to offer the position to someone else.  He explains that while you completed 100% of your assigned tasks, the tasks themselves were less difficult than those assigned to the person who is getting the position, even though he completed only 75% of them.

You had no control over the tasks assigned to you.  So through no fault of your own, and despite a better work record, the position goes to another.  Does that seem fair to you?

Should Boise State’s schedule be any reason to deny them the chance to play against Ohio State?  Shouldn’t Boise State be considered #2?  Is the whole BCS process too complicated?  Does it seem to reward teams with inferior records while denying teams with inferior schedules?
