I ran the same scenario to see if it would repeat, and OSU won the title....Wonder if they will hang a banner or make a T-Shirt for that?

I used ESPN power rankings and Sooners win it all after beating Arkansas in round 1 and upset the 1 seed Auburn Tigers. The semi finals were between OU and Va Tech on the other side was LSU vs Oregon. OU and Oregon went to the the finals which ended in the neon green tears of the ducks and the Sooners emerged victorious after beating both number one seeds in the bracket.

First try using BCS rankings...OU beats Boise then loses to Nevada...Nevada goes all the way facing Arkansas but loses to the Hogs in the championship game.
Interesting:rolleyes:

I got sporadic results. The only real consistent thing was Oregon beating Nevada. Just kinda illustrates why I hate the idea of a playoff, especially one of more than 4 teams, and definitely one of 16 teams. If you're getting different results everytime, how is that crowning a "real" national champion? I'd much rather see the two teams with the best regular seasons go at it than 16 teams get jumbled together.
