re: FBS Thesis: It was easier for "cinderellas" to win NC in the pre-BCS era

These "cinderellas" were from an era in college football before big power conferences. During that time period, the SWC was about the only power conference. That was also a time where it was possible to have multiple national champions in a single year.
TCU possibly would have split a national championship this year without the BCS matching up #1 and #2.

more likely Auburn and Oregon would have split the title, since they wouldn;t have played and tCU probably wouldn't have been in a big bowl.
