BCS Busting

No, this isn't about Utah, Boise State, TCU, Tulsa, Ball State or BYU going to a BCS bowl. Each year I root for the situation that would cause the greatest embarrassment to the BCS system. 2 (and only 2) undefeated teams from BCS conferences meeting in the championship is the worst. It means that the BCS system worked that year. So, I root for things like 5 undefeated teams (2004), or 2-loss 'national champs' (2007).

So, here are the top two methods of making the BCS look (even more) foolish this year:

The first possibility is hard for me to root for, because it involves both Utah and Boise State being undefeated and ranked in the top 12, but Boise State not getting a spot in a BCS bowl. It's not that I have a problem with either team doing well, it's just that it would require Utah to beat BYU which I simply cannot root for. Recognizing, however, that my rooting has no effect on anything, should BYU lose, this would be a potential silver lining on an otherwise terrible day. Tulsa and Ball State remaining undefeated would be nice, too

Scenario number 2 involves Oregon State and USC both winning their remaining games. This would leave Oregon State at 9-3 and USC at 11-1. These would be the only 1 loss teams in the Pac-10, making Oregon State the Pac-10 champ and punch their ticket to the Rose Bowl by virtue of their head to head victory. Then, I need top-10 teams to start losing, and quickly in order that USC (currently #5 in BCS standings) end up in the MNC (Mystical National Championship) game without winning their own conference. This would likely require something like Missouri winning the Big 12, and then the SEC to beat each other up, or perhaps a freakish Minnesota Big 11 championship. Maybe these things aren't too likely, but it could happen.

So, what other potential fiascos are out there waiting for the BCS? What are you rooting for?
