I'll Guarantee you they'd have at least 2 losses in the Big 12.

What? I think you've got your home-team blinders on pal . . . OSU beat PSU, Michigan, Washington State . . . I believe that's as many top-15 teams as OU plays in the Big XII, no?

49-3 against the Sooners...

Iowa got worked in the 2nd half by a crazy performance by one guy, which is fine . . . PS - 30-26? And that's to an A&M team who MIGHT go .500 in conference play . . .
Look, you beat the teams you're supposed to beat. OSU did that, they're better than say Oklahoma in the polls. It makes sense - now, you can flip-flop the next few positions, and I might give you Iowa over OU in the coach's poll doesn't make a ton of sense to me (and I'm an Iowa fan) - but all that's for naught in the BCS.
Don't give me "the Big XII is SOOOOO hard!!!!1" whining to cover a loss to A&M. Bottom line is, OU wins that game, they're in the national championship.

Read the above . . . this makes no sense.
Reward the teams who DON'T LOSE to shitty teams.
If you're going to just 'excuse' one loss, there are a couple other teams who'll stake a claim to OU's spot in the Fiesta - and if Miami loses, I say put Oklahoma there. But not if there's two undefeated teams.
