the answer Bernie is that Oregon plays an easy schedule.

Compared to who? They've played 4 top 25 teams and only lost to the #1 team.

Not to mention, if ND gets a BCS bid, it will once again show how much the BCS is a joke.

No it won't. The whole point of the BCS is to match the top 2 teams in the nation. It's not to fill out the big 4 bowls with the "top 8" teams in the nation. All the other stuff they add in is just filler, to pacify the bowls.

The BCS specifically states that if a team is in the top 12 of the BCS standings and has at least 9 wins, they are eligible to be chosen as an at-large team. This is basically so ND has a way in; and since ND is the biggest draw in the nation, it's smart to figure out a way to get them involved. The bowls are about making money, and any bowl that has the opportunity to select the biggest draw in the nation (ND) and doesn't is retarded.
