You're penalizing OU for playing USC in the title game and losing and rewarding Auburn for getting left out and dodging having to play them.
No the ncaa did, otherwise they would have had USC forfeit

You can't just claim a national title assuming you would have won both games.
Except for the fact that the rationale has nothing to do with your assumption.

quote:Oklahoma was ranked ahead of Auburn before the ncg, so if USC had been disqualified before that game, Oklahoma would have been ranked #1 and Auburn #2. The game between Oklahoma and Auburn never occured so the final ranking would be Oklahoma #1 and Auburn #2.

Imagine this scenario: (assume teams could still play to a tie)
USC and Oklahoma are ranked #1&2, while Auburn is #3. USC and Oklahoma play each other to a 10-10 tie. Now, the polls come out and rank USC and Oklahoma as co-national champions and Auburn still at #3. How would you handle that outcome?
