| of course I agree, but I don't see Fiesta taking Oregon over ND. And I totally agree that the USC/ND game was an anomoly. USC played a terrible game and ND really got up for it. But the ending of the game could be argued in ND's favor. Would that last USC drive have been reviewed if it was any other team than USC?
Still, Oregon should go to the Fiesta based on wins. I read an article that talked about ranked teams that Oregon has beaten. ASU was ranked, so was CAL and Fresno. (pretty sure they all fell out of rankings after Oregon beat them).
This leads me to an interesting point: Some of the same people who decide rankings, are also involved in the BCS poll, right? Do these teams, like ASU and CAL and Fresno drop from rankings after Oregon beats them because the nation thinks that Oregon is a second-class team? So it seems to me, that the system perpetuates itself...they set the rankings, then justify the bowl bids off of that.
