How many games don't matter?

At the start of the season 70 teams are still in contention for a national title.  The rest, who cares.  At least thats what the BCS guys would have us believe.  In effect there are many teams out there playing games that don't matter.  Lets take a look at the games that have no relevance on the national title game.

Week 1 22 games
Week 2 13 games
Week 3 15 games
Week 4 18 games
Week 5 18 games
Week 6 19 games
Week 7 21 games
Week 8 20 games
Week 9 19 games
Week 10 16 games
Week 11 23 games
Week 12 20 games
Week 13 20 games
Week 14 3 games
Week 15 1 game

Thats 248 games that have no impact on the BCS championship game.  BEFORE THE SEASON STARTED!!!!!!  Yeah, every game matters.  Yikes.
