Best case scenario to screw the BCS:

Oklahoma - LSU in the Sugar Bowl
Michigan - USC in the Rose Bowl

Depending on the outcomes, the national "champion" could emerge from the Rose Bowl and not the Sugar! It could happen with a lackluster game in the Sugar Bowl and a dominating winner in the Rose. Heck, even Michigan could emerge at the top!

Yep, I agree that that is the ultimate nightmare scenario. So I'm torn, do I root harder against the BCS or the Sooners?

"It could happen with a lackluster game in the Sugar Bowl"

The only problem with your argument is this little snippet.

If LSU and USC are in the Sugar Bowl almost any outcome would be considered anything but lackluster.

On the other hand, if OU goes to the Sugar Bowl, they'd have to win big to be convincing if LSU or USC runs over Michigan in the Rose Bowl.

The long and the short of it is that the system is seriously flawed. I'd much rather see teams with and 8 game streak (11-1 USC) and a 7 game streak (12-1 LSU) play for the Championship, than either against a team with a 1 game losing streak (12-1 OU).

If OU is in the Sugar Bowl after being twounced (35-7) by Kansas State (10-3) who lost 3 games in a row (Marshall, Texas, OKla St.) to end the season, that would be boring.

Oklahoma - LSU in the Sugar Bowl
Michigan - USC in the Rose Bowl

Sadly, that's the best scenario of a bad situation. Idiot Sooners. No national championship team should EVER lose a big game 35-7. Screw 'em. I changed my mind -- the game should be USC-LSU.

What a perfect scenario. Hopefully this will give the BCS a final death blow. What a travesty to college football!

Michigan with two losses would never happen when you have two once beaten teams in the Sugar. But I agree with you a dominating win by USC in the Rose and tight low scoring lackluster game in the Sugar would definately invalidate the BCS and that wouldn't make me unhappy one bit. We need a playoff.
