If Oklahoma beats the Cowboys (which is a tall order with Broyles out) it's possible we'll be left with five teams that have a credible case to play LSU for the championship. Chaos shall ensue!

Oklahoma would be #2 with Oregon #3 and Bama #4. Why? LSU beat Oregon Week 1 40-27.

yeah. It kinda made sense for UCF. They were playing on the road, where you typically go for the win. However they were playing a freshman QB, so it wasn't as good an idea (QB didn't see the defender and he easily batted down pass).

I just wonder if LSU loses to Arkansas and they fall below Bama, how much bitching will ensue?

a shit-ton of bitching. Rightfully so. Bama doesn't deserve the shot over LSU, ever, because LSU beat them. 2 non-SEC teams would be better then Alabama instead of LSU.
That logic doesn't exactly work with the BCS. Look at 2008, for example. Texas beats Oklahoma, Texas Tech beats Texas. Both Oklahoma and Texas have one loss, national championship is Oklahoma vs Florida. Doesn't make a ton of sense. Especially considering Texas vs Oklahoma was on neutral field.
But does anyone want to see a rematch for the National Championship? Personally, I wouldn't mind. But I bet the consensus reaction would be pretty negative on that
Honestly when it comes down to it the only thing that matters is what the BCS says.

Alabama presents the most problems to me so a whole lot of fans will be rooting for Auburn.
Just saw the projected standings and Oregon is 4th. A real interesting debate can come up if Oregon and Oklahoma win their conferences. Oregon would play either UCLA or Arizona St. and the Big 12 has no title game.

My guess is that if Oklahoma beats Ok State and everyone else keeps winning then it will be either Bama or Oregon playing LSU. The only question would be if Oregon could jump Bama after a Pac 12 championship game win. I can't see Oklahoma jumping past Bama in any rankings just based off a win over Ok State.
Oregon still has USC on their schedule. That's a tough game. Nobody should assume Oregon is going the rest of the way undefeated.
But, out of all the 1 loss teams, I would put Oklahoma at #2 if they end up beating Oklahoma State. It's really funny how with this BCS crap the scheduling date of the games makes all the difference in the World.

Alabama's schedule is easier than Oklahoma and I can't be convinced otherwise. Penn State is damn near inept on offense much of the season and Arkansas is overrated as they only beat South Carolina which is not much to write home about.
And who has Oklahoma beaten that's any better then who Bama has beaten? Florida State is no better then Penn State and I'll take Arkansas over Texas or K State any day. A win over Ok State wouldn't be enough to make up for a loss to Texas Tech.
