The schools didn’t agree to anything.


wrong! Division 1 schools voted to implement the BCS format of that time. A huge majority voted in favor. After 2003 Pete Carroll said He (USC) didn't know what they were voting for. /cough/ bullsh@t /cough/.

If you believe his sh@t, I have a bridge in Brooklyn for sale.

ETA: I couldn't find a link to the actual voting but here is a link with a quote from Chuck Amato and subsequent info in the next paragraph or two..
Coaches Vote

And you won’t find a single line in that document that spells out any agreement that the AP poll was obsolete or that teams had to accept the BCS title as the only title claim. It only obliged the AFCA to align their #1 with the winner of that game. There is no way, shape or form that allows you to claim that title claims between LSU and USC were settled on the field that season. It was decided by computers.
