Georgia's Potential BCS Beef

The BCS is universally hated.  There are good reasons for that. 

Earlier, I wrote an article after the first BCS standings were released asking the question, what if Texas and Oklahoma (Nos. 1 and 4 respectively in the BCS standings) win out and Alabama and Penn State (Nos. 2 and 3) take a loss? 

There would be two teams from the same conference playing for the title or there would have be some shenanigans to make sure that they don't.  Neither of those scenarios would be acceptable in my view.  Here is a link to that article....

After doing some more analysis, I've come across this potential situation.  What if the above situation indeed happens: Texas and Oklahoma win out, Penn State loses (say next week to Ohio State) and Georgia also wins out (which means Alabama would lose to them in the SEC Championship Game if not before).

I realize there is a lot of football to be played, but let's just assume that this happens for right now.

Last year, when the last weekend of the season blew up the BCS and the pollsters were searching for deserving parties, Georgia got left out of consideration for the national title game because it was universally held that they didn't win their division of the SEC (and therefore couldn't have won the SEC Championship Game because they didn't play in it).

Yet, if the scenarios I spell out above happen (Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia win out and Penn State loses), Oklahoma would be sitting at No. 2 and would not have won their division of the Big 12, nor would they have won the Big 12 Championship Game because they wouldn't have played in it.

Does anyone outside of an OU fan have a way to justify this? I sure can't.

For the record, with the head of steam Georgia was playing with last year to end the season, I think they would have beaten LSU or at least gave them more of a game than Ohio State did.

No one can deny that Georgia closed the season last year better than anybody other than LSU, which is why they started this year's preseason polls as a near-unanimous No. 1.  Therefore, I don't necessarily have a problem with Georgia having played LSU in the title game.

We all know Ohio State was undeserving, and no one else seemed to deserve it either.  If it's two legitimate teams from the same conference AND that conference has proven its mettle time and again (the SEC and the Big 12 certainly qualify), then I'm okay with it. 

I know most people aren't, but it's not all right for Oklahoma when it wasn't all right for Georgia.  I'm saying the rules need to be consistent.  That is the BCS's biggest downfall: it is constantly inconsistent.
