That article is pure speculation from a guy that openly stated that his rooting interest is chaos for the BCS. There’s the illusion of research and math, but there’s no real substance to his analysis. Let’s take a closer look at this nightmare scenario and you’ll see that it’s nothing to be afraid of.

Texas’ position in the BCS will not strengthen, but rather weaken, after Saturday’s games. Sure, they could gain from rising above Alabama in the two computers that currently have the Tide ahead of them, but they could just as easily lose from having Oklahoma surge above them in the two that have the Sooners below them at the moment. My best guess is that they’ll likely end up with the same computer score that they now have. Meanwhile, Florida would go from .820 to .866 by moving up a single slot in each of model. That may not seem like enough, but take this next point into account.

Texas will lose significant ground in the human polls (twice as important as the computers). Not only will their Championship wins propel the Gators and Sooners to the top of both rankings (helping Oklahoma’s Harris score and Florida’s in the USA Today), but the Longhorns will likely lose the temporary support they got for their bid to make it to the Big XII Championship Game to begin with and might still have to contend for the #3 slot, this time with the Crimson Tide. In other words, not only will UF’s scores for both polls shoot up, but UT’s would drop as well. If Oklahoma and Florida end up basically deadlocked at the top of both polls, the gains from where the Gators are now would finish closing the gap from the computers, even if Texas retains all of the support it has now, which won’t happen.

A win in Atlanta and the Gators are in the National Championship Game. I’m certain of this. If you’d like to put some money on this, I’d be happy to oblige. That’s how sure of it I am.

The fact that it’s a discussion concerns me. I’m glad someone is confident in the system “working” because I’m sure as hell not.
