USC lost to Oregon State. Utah beat Oregon State and is undefeated. Seems like a no brainer how I'd vote.

Utah barely beat the Beav, whereas Penn St. absolutely seal clubbed the Beav, and USC beat down Penn St. Therefor USC > UT, fun how this works...

It is set up against them to play for a NC, and that in turn sets up a system that gives them an unfair disadvantage in recruiting.

Tell me that a BCS school is not going to tell a head to head recruited player that "You can not play for a NC there - come hither young man".
