It's always awarded. Getting into the BCS title game is awarded by pollsters. Once you're in...you can look like crap but as long as you win...you are awarded the trophy. The BCS title game participants are awarded their place in the game...once in, the winner is assured the coaches poll vote. The winner of the BCS title game is "awarded" the coaches vote...the AP awards their vote.

Don't kid yourself that everyone is "winning it on the field" like some playoff.


There's a system in place that everyone agreed to play under, so no, it's not awarded.

How does this system determine who plays in the BCS CG? Oh, that's right its based on a formula 2/3 of which are polls, which rank teams, that's pretty much the definition of subjective. So yes its awarded. And the standards change. Some times in bases on SOS others its based on "eyeball tests".

The NCAA didn't agree to it. They don't recognize it, so yeah, it is awarded.
