WASHINGTON – Sen. Orrin Hatch is asking President Barack Obama to launch a Justice Department investigation into college football's Bowl Championship Series over antitrust laws.

Hatch tells the president in a letter Wednesday that a "strong case" can be made that the BCS violates antitrust laws. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the letter.

Under the BCS system, some conferences get automatic bids to participate in top-tier bowls while others don't, and the automatic bid conferences also get far more of the revenue. Hatch represents Utah, and he says the current system unfairly discriminates against some conferences. The BCS has said it simply recognizes the teams people want to watch. Neither the White House nor the Justice Department has an immediate comment.
