Prepare for more BCS controversy

There were a few upsets of some top 10 BCS teams this Saturday. The debate begins on which one loss team deserves to be in the National Championship game. The first team will be the winner of the Ohio State - Michigan game this Saturday, that's a definite. The top of the list includes USC (3), Florida (4), Notre Dame (5), Rutgers (6), Arkansas (7), West Virginia (8).
USC got embarrassed by Oregon State, in terms of one loss they have the worst one. Florida lost to Auburn. Notre Dame lost to Michigan. Rutgers is undefeated obviously. Arkansas lost to USC. West Virginia lost to Louisville. Notre Dame and USC still have to play one another. Rutgers still has to play West Virginia. Arkansas still has to likely play Florida in the SEC championship game.
It doesn't make sense for USC to be ranked higher than Florida and Notre Dame since they have the ugly one loss. There is going to be a lot of BCS talk in all these news this week, but the bottom line is there is a lot of football to play. And it all may be for nothing and the Championship game could end up being a rematch of Michigan vs. Ohio State. Who knows what the computer is going to think.
