Why conference title games?

With Missouri taking on Oklahoma in the Big XII championship game this weekend, the Tigers are at odds to win yet another game.

Even though they beat undefeated Kansas in the regular season finale at Arrowhead Stadium, Mizzu still has to prove its worth.

Why?

Because there is still a conference championship game that could end the Tigers' dream season and send Ohio State -- who has been dormant for two weeks since beating Michigan -- to the national title game.

This must be fixed. I am a fan of the Big Ten and I don't it's fair that teams can help themselves without playing when teams are forced into another game because conferences seek the almighty dollar.

The major conferences -- Big Ten, Big XII, Pac 10, ACC, SEC and Big East -- should be forced to either play a league title game or get rid of it altogether. I know everyone would enjoy another game in the Big Ten, Pac 10 and Big East conferences and it would also help that conference if a team is on the bubble of advancing to a high-revenue bowl.
