Undefeated Big 10...trumps one loss SEC. Sorry.
Why do you speak so absolutely about something you really don't have any idea about?
Did you do the math yourself?

It would be very, very close. No one can say for sure whether an undefeated Iowa or 1-loss SEC champion would go. Brad Edwards, ESPN's BCS guru, projects that a 1-loss SEC champion would go over Iowa, but even he says it would be close and could go either way depending upon how the actual games play out.
All that said, we can totally avoid the discussion if Ohio State beats Iowa, as they should. Once that happens, the path is cleared and the national title will be an undefeated or 1-loss SEC champion versus Texas. An undefeated Cincy would have a case, but a 1-loss SEC champion would go over an undefeated Cincy at the end of the day.
Boise State and TCU are pointless to even discuss, because neither are going to the BCS championship game, even if they win out. Their games and hoping for them to lose is irrelevant in the BCS championship picture.

If we run the table I think only an undefeated Texas, Iowa, and Cincy would be ahead of us.
Eventhough I would expect Cincy to have a low computer score I think they could be firmly in with the human poll.
I thinkthe voters will respect an undefeated BCS team no matter who they are.

Iowa would probably be ahead in the computers, and would almost certainly be ahead in the human polls. They already have 2 first place votes in the Harris, and that's after looking like garbage and not even playing OSU yet.

Don't know if I believe ESPN much these days. Check out Rich Tellshow's site for analysis that has more behind it. He was picking us over USC in 2003 weeks before ESPN even had us on their radar.

If we lose to Bama and somehow make it to the SECCG
This can't happen. If Alabama beats LSU, they will represent the West in Atlanta.
