Three teams vie for BCS Title Game Slot

Teams playing better later in the year continue to be rewarded in the post season placement according to this USAToday article.  “Southern California is expected to play for the national title vs. Ohio State if the Trojans beat UCLA on Saturday, according to those who analyze the Bowl Championship Series formula. But that could change if the Trojans lose or voters see something they don’t like.”

That fits with having the best two teams as of Jan. 7, 2007 play each other. Could a lackluster down to the wire win by USC drop them below the Wolverines are a Gator team that dismantles the Razorbacks?  That is not likely unless the win by USC is seen to have outside support, along the lines of the Oregan win over Oklahoma earlier this year.
