West Virginia (Orange Bowl Champs) became the first program to win 3 different BCS games without winning a national title.

Oklahoma A&M (Fiesta Bowl Champs) won their FIRST major bowl game over a major opponent. (1946 Sugar win over St. Mary's holds no merit today).

Oregon (Rose Bowl Champs) won their first major ULTIMATE GOAL bowl game since the 1920s. (2002 Fiesta is a mere consolation).

Michigan (Sugar Bowl Champs) won their first ever Sugar Bowl.

Alabama (National Champs) became the first program in the modern era (second in the Poll era) to win the national title without winning its conference.

St. Mary's was ranked #7 in the AP poll at the time. When OSU wins another major bowl in 50-60 years, I doubt Stanford will have merit then too.
