ESPN is reporting that right now the BCS poll would match up Oregon and Boise State.  That
could change by next Sunday's first poll.  

They do point out that Boise State's SOS has probably peaked and Ohio State and Nebraska's 
should go up as the season progresses.  

But the pressure for a BCS buster in the NC game could build to the point where poll voters
feel pressured to put Boise State higher on their cards to 'validate' the computer ranking.

For the BCS haters (and/or playoff fanatics) this could set up the perfect storm.  Let 
Boise State and Oregon play in the BCS bowl with Ohio State and Nebraska playing for 
the 'real' national championship from AP. :-)
