If you turned over the ball 10 times, you still wouldn’t lose to Auburn.

Just looked at the BCS ratings: http://espn.go.com/college-football/bcs

Only way ND gets in is if they go undefeated and KSU or Oregon loses.

Honestly, the way TAMU played, I think that’s a great matchup to Oregon. But, I’ve not vested interest in any of these teams.

I agree. ND has too many haters in the coach’s poll and the computer is also stacked against the boys.

really sucks how SEC bias has allowed three teams with 2 losses to be in the top 10 of the BCS standings.

ND is #1 in four of the six computer rankings and #2 in the other two.

ND haters are not the problem with the voters. It’s the narrow escapes against two bad teams and a decent Stanford team, all at home; and, having Oklahoma as it’s best win in a game that was close until the end.

An interesting red herring: “And if it is, why since the start of the BCS era in 1998 does the conference have overall losing records against the Pac-12 (11-12) and Big East (19-23) and superior but not dominating records against other major conferences?” When the winner of the Pac 12 plays a third from the top SEC team in bowls, the writer probably doesn’t write the truth then, either.

Notre Dame still has to play on the road versus USC. Despite their troubles this season, I like the Trojans in that game. Which will leave OU and K-State to play for the championship ... if they can win out. If we wind up with two-three-four one-loss teams it’s going to be a mess.

The perception of SEC dominance stems from the 2007 BCS game, which, remarkably, wasn’t mentioned in the article. That year, if you recall, Ohio State and Michigan were 1-2 most of the season, and when Ohio State beat UM on the last game of the season, most people thought there would be a BCS rematch. Urban Meyer lobbied hard to get UF into the game, and UF demolished a previously unbeaten OSU. The next year, Ohio State (also ranked number 1) was whipped by LSU.

After that, there was a good reason for the perception of SEC dominance: they dominated on the field in the big games.
