I've been meaning to start a tread like this in part to predict what a committee or humans might do.
Here's where they differ:
1998:
BCS:
1. UT
2. FSU
3. KSU
4. OSU
Poll Average:
1. UT
2. FSU
3. OSU
4. KSU
Not much difference
1999:
BCS:
1. FSU
2. VT
3. Nebraska
4. Bama
Polls:
1. FSU
2. VT
3. Nebraska
4. Bama
4. Tennessee (Tie)
Again, not much different
2000:
BCS:
1. OU
2. FSU
3. Miami
4. Washington
Polls:
1. OU
2. FSU
2. Miami (tie)
4. Washington
Great year for Playoff.
VT and Oregon St also had just 1 loss

Forget my last post; these are only two years where things differed between BCS and Human Polls for inclusion of top 4 teams:
1999
1. FSU
2. VT
3. Nebraska
4. Bama
Polls:
1. FSU
2. VT
3. Nebraska
4. Wisconsin
2004
BCS:
1. USC
2. Oklahoma
3. Auburn
4. Texas
Polls:
1. USC
2. Oklahoma
3. Auburn
4. Cal
2007:
BCS:
1. Ohio State
2. LSU
3. Virginia Tech
4. Oklahoma
Polls:
1. Ohio State
2. LSU
3. Oklahoma
4. Georgia
2010
1. Auburn
2. Oregon
3. TCU
4. Stanford (BCS)
4. Wisconsin (Tied with Stanford in Polls)
The orders changed around a bit most years, but in only four seasons were the top 4 teams were not identical in the BCS and the polls.
