Example, using last year and assuming the BCS rankings were the way schools are chosen. Using your example of Peach/Fiesta (though the first year will be Rose/Sugar as that has already been decided).
Fiesta - #1 ND vs #4 Oregon
Peach - #2 Bama vs #3 Florida
Sugar (SEC/Big12) - #7 Georgia vs #5 K-State
Rose (B1G/PAC)- NR Wisconsin vs #6 Stanford
Orange (ACC/SEC or B1G) - #12 FSU vs #8 LSU
Cotton (at-large vs non-bcs at-large) - #9 Texas A&M vs #15 Northern Illinois
The at-larges are required to include the conference champs of each of the Big 5 plus at least one school from the little conferences provided any are not selected to the semis. Thus when the Rose or Sugar or Orange host semis, their normal selections are thrown into the at-large group.
Edit: my guess is the selection committee would place Oregon 3rd just to avoid SEC conference foes in the semis

Got you...
Have they set how the money will be divided? I know the splits from the Orange and Sugar -- but what about the playoffs and other bowls? Are we going to get paid on our actual participation level?
Still alot of questions to be answered...
