the bowl championship series, famous for its use of math, was the successor of the bowl alliance (1995–1997), which was itself the successor of the bowl coalition (1992–1994). besides the many adjustments it underwent during its tenure, including a large overhaul following the 2004 season that included the replacement of the ap poll with the harris poll, the bcs remained a mixture of math and human polls since its inception in 1998, with the goal of matching the best two teams in the nation in a national championship bowl game which rotated yearly between the sugar, fiesta, rose, and orange bowls from 1998 to 2005, and later a standalone game titled the bcs national championship game (2006 to 2013). the winner of the bcs championship game was awarded the national championship of the coaches poll thus winning the afca national championship trophy. the bcs winner also received the macarthur bowl from the national football foundation. neither the ap poll, nor other current selectors, had contractual obligations to select the bcs champion as their national champion. the bcs resulted in a number of controversies, most notably after the 2003 season, when the bcs championship game did not include eventual ap champion usc, the only time the two championships have diverged since the advent of the bcs. after many seasons of controversy, the bcs was replaced with the college football playoff, a plus-one system aimed at reducing the controversy involved in which teams get to play in a championship game through use of a tournament.
