3. Oh, you mean

Thank Diebold for streamlining the process for us!
Elections used to be such messy affairs. You never knew who would win!

7. record, conference standing, strength of schedule and polls are input into a computer

8. All you need to know is
that the BCS is the biggest clusterfuck short of the Bush administration ever invented in this country.
