Okay, pardon input from a Big XII girl.

ANY BCS school would gladly buy their way out of that one.

A lot of BCS schools are realizing that tough non-conference schedules are frankly not worth it.

Look at Texas. If they had played Middle Tennessee State instead of Ohio State, they'd still be #1. Now they're hoping to back-door it into the national title game.

A tough non-conference schedule is only better if you can win all the games.

It's a little different for a non-BCS school because you've gotta "prove" yourself. But those four teams...in the same season...that's just crazy-talk!
