LSU v The Ohio State University
Due to BCS Madness, The Ohio State University moon-walked into the championship game against LSU, who performed an erotic leapfrog over Georgia, Virginia Tech and Kansas.
Why LSU and The Ohio State University...
This proves two things. First, the poll during the year is mostly arbitrary, but when the final poll came out, the average result indicated some level of reason. Teams who did not lose generally moved up (The Ohio State University). Teams that did not win a conference title were surpassed by teams the did (Kansas and Georgia).
But at this point, that should have left Virginia Tech in the title game. This is were voters stepped in and said, "Even though we voted Tech a place above LSU last week, we just can't rank a Tech team with the same record as LSU, higher than LSU because: LSU plays in a much tougher conference, won that conference, and beat Tech 48-7.
Does that get the BCS off the hook? No. The BCS is no better than the old system. It just pretends to be better. But the argument that there was no rationale behind the final voting is also false.
