the only real difference in OSU and OU is that OSU still owns their rival and OU's rival has started showing up

otherwise it's very similar. mediocre conferences with talent concentrated in 2 teams. generally a big talent gap after that (although PSU had their once every 4 year runs last year)

THAT is the worry about OU and OSU. they out talent their shitty conference competition and (at least used to) own their 1 conference competitor. because of this, they get overrated year in, year out

Wouldn't that be the worry about USC as well? I'll give that they play good OOC teams, but for instance last year, it was the same OSU team that half the people in this thread are slamming. Wouldn't that be the worry against any elite team in a mediocre conference?

Here's my question, and this is just a general question for anyone who argues against OU, OSU, etc. being in the title game. WHO do they want in there then? And for this argument, I'm assuming the SEC champ is already in. Surely they're not arguing for the ACC champ or the Big East champ.

That's my problem with the BCS in general...when you crown a champ based on a formula in which teams can "work the system," that's an issue.
