No way the media would allow the cheaters to screw Boise or TCU out of their shot.

could being the operative word

Last year, a 1 loss Florida team (that loss came in the SECCG against Bama) was ranked ahead of an unbeaten Boise State but below an unbeaten TCU team in the final BCS standings.

TCU only has New Mexico left on their schedule so they are 99.9% certain to be undefeated.

If either Auburn or Oregon lose a game, TCU is most likely in the BCS title game. The computers and the human polls would have to love Auburn more than they loved a one loss Florida last year. Possible, but unlikely. Especially in a year when the human polls have consistently kept TCU and Boise State in the top 5. A one loss Auburn would likely be sandwiched between TCU and Boise, just as a one loss Florida was last year.

Now if Oregon AND Auburn both lose, a one loss Auburn is more likely to make the title game.

We shall see...
