This is the rule regarding who plays in the BCS NCG


quote:


If a conference has a conference championship, then a team that does not play in that championship is not eligible for the National title game. Look it up.


Whut?

Here is the rules:

Team selection procedures

The bowls will select their participants from two pools: (1) automatic qualifiers, all of which must be selected, and, (2) at-large teams, if fewer than 10 teams qualify automatically. The following sequence will be used when establishing pairings:

1. The top two teams in the final BCS Standings will be placed in the National Championship Game ("NCG").

2. Unless they qualify to play in the NCG, the champions of selected conferences are contractually committed to host selected games:


Atlantic Coast Conference-Orange Bowl
Big Ten Conference-Rose Bowl
Big 12 Conference-Fiesta Bowl
Pac-12 Conference-Rose Bowl
Southeastern Conference-Sugar Bowl


Automatic qualification

1. The top two teams in the final BCS Standings shall play in the National Championship Game.

Has nothing to do with Conference Champions. It's the two, top ranked teams in the BCS. Period.
