That's why I said IMO...Clemson was in...The BCS historically punished late season loses more than the committee. I bet it would have ended Clemson vs Okie.
Essentially every BCS "replacement" simulation that I've seen has had UGA at 2 and Oklahoma at 3...

Your "opinion" doesn't offset the simulations of what is more or less a known quantity in terms of equation... while it can't be exact as there are some systems that are no longer present and have to be substituted, the closest approximation shows that you'd be wrong.
"punished late season losses" was typically due to the actual AP poll (read: human) bias... not the computer calculations.

Again those simulations have to use the info at hand which is skewed now because of the Committee...no simulation can accurately depict what would have happened if you some how could have miraculously applied the old system on this season. What we do know is uga finished #3 in the Coaches poll? It is likely the Harris Poll would have followed suit?
As those simulations admit in the links you provide they aren't accurate because they aren't using the correct info.
Another factor under the BCS formula there is zero chance Auburn would have been ranked #2 in the SECCG...which would have weakened the only advantage uga had on Okie in the computer analysis.
