So the BCS is set and TCU is getting screwed. A second straight undefeated season and they won't have a chance to be declared National Champions. Well, let's look at how I would have done it...
Final Rankings:
1: Auburn (13-0)
2: Oregon (12-0)
3: Texas Christian (12-0)
4: Nevada (12-1)
5: Stanford (11-1)
6: Ohio State (11-1)
7: Wisconsin (11-1)
8: Michigan State (11-1)
9: Boise State (11-1)
10: Oklahoma (11-2)
11: Virginia Tech (11-2)
12: Arkansas (10-2)
13: Louisiana State (10-2)
14: Missouri (10-2)
15: Oklahoma State (10-2)
16: Utah (10-2)
17: Nebraska (10-3)
18: Hawaii (10-3)
19: Central Florida (10-3)
20: Northern Illinois (10-3)
21: Alabama (9-3)
22: Texas A&M (9-3)
23: West Virginia (9-3)
24: Tulsa (9-3)
Also receiving "votes:" South Carolina (9-4), Florida State (9-4), Miami OH (9-4), Navy (8-3), Mississippi State (8-4), North Carolina State (8-4), Maryland (8-4), Connecticut (8-4), San Diego State (8-4), Air Force (8-4), Fresno State (8-4), Notre Dame (7-5), Arizona (7-5), Iowa (7-5), Pittsburgh (7-5), South Florida (7-5).
So here is how a 16-team tournament with the conference champs and the five best at-large teams:
#1 Auburn (SEC) vs. #16 Florida International (Sun Belt)
#2 Oregon (Pac-10) vs. #15 Connecticut (Big East)
#3 Texas Christian (MWC) vs. #14 Miami OH (MAC)

#6 Ohio State (Big Ten) vs. #11 Virginia Tech (ACC)
#7 Wisconsin (At-large) vs. #10 Oklahoma (Big 12)
#8 Michigan State (At-large) vs. #9 Boise State (At-large)
