If you disagree with it, that's your right. It's your choice. It's OK, ... But we have a lot of people coming to our games. We've got a lot of people watching our games (on TV). ... Why would we change what we're doing
More Quotes from Jim Delany:
There have been discussions about the Big Ten being down, and my reaction was, I don't think we're down, ... I don't think we have a Kentucky or an Arizona in our league. But I'd rather have quality depth than shallow depth in one or two good teams. And I think that's what we have.Jim Delany

I think one of the big issues that has been very unintended, but very much reinforced by the media, is using this term BCS over and over again for purposes for which it was never considered, ... It was simply a way to support the bowl system and to provide a 1 vs. 2 game for the coaches, the players and the public. It's been really difficult for the conferences that don't have automatic ties to the Rose Bowl, the Sugar, the Orange or the Fiesta to constantly hear that they are 'non-BCS.'
