I think this should be enough to prop LSU into the top 2 in the BCS.
USC has only played ONE ranked team this whole damn season. LSU has played georgia (twice), Mississippi, but lost to Florida.
LSU vs OU will be my pick.

I don't agree that LSU will be #1, though they may deserve it. The week Ohio State lost (Nov 22), the Trojans beat unranked UCLA at home while LSU beat ranked Ole Miss on the road and the Trojans stayed #2 and LSU only moved up to #3. I think that LSU and USC will split the first place votes fairly equally, probably along geographic lines, with the AP poll going 1. USC 2. LSU 3. Oklahoma and the coaches poll going 1. LSU 2. USC 3. Oklahoma, with the difference in points being very small. Oklahoma will get many first place votes as well. What a clusterfuck. Another scenario I have heard being played out is very interesting. There is a good chance that if USC beats #4 Michigan in the Rose Bowl that the AP poll will crown them #1, no matter the outcome of the Sugar Bowl. Sure the BCS would call the Sugar Bowl winner the National Champion but the writers would call USC the National Champion, crazy.
