In this year's version of NCAA insanity, Washington still could play in the Orange Bowl itself. If Oklahoma loses to Kansas State and Miami falls to Boston College this Saturday, then the Huskies could trade in their Rose Bowl berth for an Orange Bowl bid. That assumes, however, that Oklahoma would drop below Washington in the final Bowl Championship Series rankings, which rely on things like the Dunkel Index and a Seattle Times computer that is ready to go on strike at any moment. If you think that's confusing, you don't get it. Not the BCS system.
Nobody gets that.
As if that's an attribute. Here's a scenario for you. Florida State beat 10-0 Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl, both would have one loss. So would Miami and Washington, if they win their respective bowl games. Then you'd have a situation where Oklahoma lost to Florida State, which lost to Miami, which lost to Washington.
