BY-Who?

Well, the BCS schools are catching a break tonight as BYU is just getting annihilated by TCU. That realistically leaves two non-BCS schools who can get into the five BCS bowls -- Boise State and Utah -- and deserve it.

If one of those teams runs the table, one will get in and should get in -- one of those teams will be in the top 12 of the BCS, resulting in automatic qualification. However, if one of the BCS conference champions, cough Big East cough, is ranked lower than 16 in the BCS standings, then a non-BCS school automatically gets in if it's in the top 16.

I don't want to see an 11-1 Utah or Boise State team in there that is ranked 16th and gets in just because the Big East is terrible.

I'll try to post by BCS if the season ended today on a weekly basis, so right now, accounting for BYU's loss, it would be:

National title game: Texas vs. Alabama
Rose: USC vs. Penn State
Fiesta: Oklahoma vs. Ohio State
Sugar: Florida vs. Utah
Orange: Virginia Tech vs. Big East Champ
