I hope you all know that when Rutgers wins out they will play Michigan in the NC game.

And I'm not joking!

If they do win out and are passed up for a 1 loss team for the NC game, that's bull****.

I partially disagree Bmmarti, Louisville had a great argument because they did have a tough schedule. Rutgers out of conference schedule was very bad, and they haven't really won impressively. Yes, they did beat the #4 team in the country last night, and they have to beat WVU to get considered.

However, most of the computers are going to hate Rutgers. It will be close between a number of 1 loss teams and Rutgers. I believe that if it's a 1 loss Texas, Florida, USC or Cal Rutgers will not be in the BCS title game.

Based on this it looks like Rutgers may be ranked higher than most people are expecting.

I hope the BE ends up with 3 teams in the top ten.

Different, Auburn was not included because there was THREE undefeated teams that year heading into the NC game.  There was Auburn, OK, and USC....in that case Auburn lost the beauty contest partially because of a real poor OOC schedule that was worse than the other two teams.

In this instance it would be a case if two undefeated teams meet.  The BCS rules state that they must play.

Rutger's OOC schedule is much poorer then UL's but if they're the only other undefeated team by season's end then I still put better than a 70% chance they're in the championship game.
