Well, let's get real. If you have 2 teams that are undefeated, you have to go with the one with the tougher schedule. Boise State has really made a statement. But, come on, it was a close game against a team that wasn't exactly the toughest. Ohio State is still the standard-bearer at this point.

OK then it goes to reason if FLorida beats OSU that that means they are a better team than Boise St since OSU is a better team than Boise St -- so why should Boise get a tie then?

You're missing the point. If Florida beats OSU, then there is only 1 team left with an undefeated record. The strength of schedule should be brought in as factor, only if 2 teams remain undefeated. OSU is only considered a "better" team than Boise State if they remain undefeated.
