re: 2010 Auburn Tigers v/s 2005 Texas Longhorns

I realize football isn't math and the transitive property doesn't always fit, but let's examine the two losing BCS teams of 2005 and 2010.

Texas beat USC by three points and AU beat Oregon by the same 3 point spread.

So, who would you take in the consolation game, USC(2005) or Oregon(2010)? I believe USC would destroy Oregon, therefor, Texas would handily beat AU.
