i've searched and couldn't locate the tie breaker. if we beat bama, a&m beats us and bama beat a&m and we all go 7-1 who goes to atlanta?
In that scenario TAMU would likely go.
The tiebreaker would be the highest ranked team in the BCS amongst the 3 teams. If TAMU were to come into Tiger Stadium and Beat a 10-0 LSU team that just beat an undefeated Bama team at BDS, then they would likely be the highest ranked team given the polls "what have you done for me lately" mentality.

There's about 10 rules that apply to break a tie that have been established for years. A few are strength of schedule, scores against other common foes, points scored against each other, yards gained on offense and other rules I can't remember. This came up about 3 years ago when LSU,BAMA and Arky thought they might all tie.
