I whipped this horse to death within a different thread but would like a wider audience to chime in.

Can someone give an example of how in the hell the Big 12 'champ' can land themselves in the BCSNC without the Big 10, Pac or SEC champ having 2+ losses.

It's my opinion that A&M, OU or Texas will be crying us a river come this January and every January to come. The Big 12 'champ' will have an embarrassing strength of schedule with no conference title game to toss on the resume.

Does a 12-0 name brand like Texas or OU have the clout to jump a 0 or 1 loss SEC squad? Big 10? Pac-whatever?

Living in Austin and listening to sports radio everyday makes me wonder why they think the Big 12 can earn anything more than a #3 seeding and an irrelevant BCS bowl.

If OU is 12-0, they're in. Simple as that. They're starting in the top two.

If OU beats FSU then I could see it happening.

Yes, the only two undefeated in the Big 12-2 to jump another 1 or 2 loss conference team would be OU and Texas, imo.

Explain how an undefeated SEC team gets left out of the BCSNCG.

It could happen if:

1. OU is ranked at or near the top when the BCS comes out,

2. OU blows everyone out every game, including FSU,

3. The representatives of the other conferences have 1 loss with no impressive wins, and

4. The 1 loss from the other teams comes late in the season

1. Find a girl at the bar with a close friend.
2. Get them drunk.
3. Be really nice to one and really mean to the other.
4. Invite them both back to your place.
5. Only have 3 beers in your refrigerator (this is key)
6. The 3 of you drink one beer each.
7. Yawn.
8. Subtly hint you would like to go to bed with both of them.
9. ?????
10. Success.

Eta: I misunderstood the question.
