When it comes to determining a national champion without a playoff system, of course objectivity will be compromised. I'm huge fan of Boise State myself. Just for the blue field and the kick-ass record.
If MTV did a show about any real national fraternity, it would make huge news. At first I thought it would be cool if MTV did a series about my chapter, but then I realized that they would try to make it look like something goes wrong every week. Like, if I'm arguing with my girlfriend over the phone, they will splice it with a phone conversation with another brother to make it look like a whole lot of drama is going down. Then they would film me about to take a nap while blasting REM's "Everybody Hurts". Or they would show someone tired, or frowning at step practice to make it look like there is major dissension amongst our ranks. MTV seems like they would intensify nonexistent problems just to boost ratings.
ESPN would, at the most, make some of the rivalries look like century old feuds about who could play kickball better. But they would probably highlight other aspects of the organizations as well as the schools. At least that's what I see when I watch college sports on there.
