Default Who should play in the Orange bowl?

Since college football does not have a playoff system, it looks like there will once again be contreversy over who plays in the national championship game. Assuming Auburn, USC and Oklahoma all win out, who do you think should play in it? For selfish reasons, I am hoping that it is Auburn vs. USC .

I would agree, Auburn v. USC as long as they both win out.

Auburn vs. OK...USC has a week strength of schedule whereas the Big 12 and ACC have the toughest conferences

Auburn V. Oklahoma and its not even close. Auburn is by far the most accomplished team in the country beating more top teams then any other school and as much as I hate to say it the PAC 10 conference is a joke these days for football. I am still holding out hope that my UCLA Bruins beat USC on December 4th shattering the Trojans hope for a national title, that would make my Christmas extra sweet!

Auburn and Oklahoma are the 2 best teams. USC plays in a weakass conference. Auburn and Oklahoma play in tough conferences and have handily beaten top teams time and time again.

The Big 12 is consistently the most overrated conference in the NCAA.

USC had the best team each of the last two seasons and only has a half a title to show for it.

Any undefeated SEC team should ALWAYS be in the title game, witness underdog winners LSU, Tennessee and Alabama in the last decade. The SEC is hands down THE premier football conference.

I vote USC vs Auburn.

Cal is a top-5 team with an unstoppable offense and a rare defense that creates pressure without a blitz. They could beat Oklahoma in any given game and they would obliterate Texas. ASU could probably beat Texas if they had a good first half and forced them to stray from the run.

The Pac-10 constantly has this "we don't play defense" reputation but I see the whole Big 12 South surrending 30+ points at will and we know how awful the Big 12 North is.

The SEC isn't exactly that great either, but they do have a ton of top-25ish teams that can give you a run for your money. Auburn and SC, without a doubt. Anyone who picks Oklahoma because of their conference has watched very little football this year.
