Could get a BCS Screwing

[bullpop]

Fox,ESPN, others reorting that if both USF and WVU win out, WVU could go to championship and we go to Orange Bowl???? We would be Big East champs AND as of today- USF STR of Sch=19, WVU=98!!!!!!!

As noted on many of the other threads on this topic... USF would be CO-Champions.  WVU would also be Big East "champs"....

I think it would suck if that were to be the case. However, it wuld actually be a testament to us in a twisted, repugnant way: While it's true that we beat them head to head, which would make that decision make little sense, looking at it outside of that, WVU will have lost only to the (insert our final, likely top 5 ranking here) team, whereas we lost to an at least 3 loss (the two they already have plus the assumed loss to WVU) Rutgers.

what relevance does the strength of schedule as of today have to do with bowl games in January?

If we go undefeated in our conference, none of this matters.  If we don't bring our A game to Uconn this weekend, none of this matters anyway.

Since we lost to Rutgers, USF can't go undefeated in the conference.

Also as stated in other threads, if both USF and WVU win out it is likely that we would leapfrog them due to the fact that we beat them and our loss will have faded in the voters minds, others above us would lose and the computers love our SoS.

If we can get the voters to come around on us then we'll get a better bowl than WV, were already higher in the computers and the only thing that'll hinder us is if we lose...

a little OT, but I still think we should be ranked higher than Oklahoma.

Wait. If there are two teams tied, its a head to head matchup that decides. That would give it to us.

If its a three team tie, then its the highest BCS ranking. Which would be WVU in the drivers seat for that.

Right?

That is correct for who would represent the conference in the BCS; however, all bets are off when it comes to the Nat'l Title Game. If WVU is ranked 1 or 2, they WILL go to that game, regardless of whether or not we are repping the Big East in the BCS; we'd likely go to the Orange Bowl as conference champ.
