Not LSU 2011
Should I edit? I figured everyone would say 2011 LSU.

'11 LSU, '05 USC,'02 Miami and '98 FSU would be my top 4
With '11 LSU beating '05 USC for the title.

I'm biased but I honestly believe 2004 AU is the correct answer.

I'd go Miami over '98 FSU. Maybe even 2005 USC.

I agree. I'd take 2004 AU over quite a few of the champions from the BCS era.
But they weren't a BCS runner up. Didn't play in the game, so I'm not including them.

05 USC would beat 90% of those teams

I would say finishing #2 in the BCS makes you BCS runner up.

Then change the title to best team to lose a BCSCG

My picks as well.

05 USC would beat any of those teams.
That team was freaking loaded on offense and defense.

2004 Auburn
But travis daniels recovered the fumble in bounds ending the auburn game winning drive against lsu in 2004. oh, you mean the officials called travis daniels out bounds just like they called Patrick Peterson out of bounds against bama in 2009.

2012 Georgia
And yes I realize that UGA wasn't the runner up in 2012 but they would have beaten ND just as bad
