Update on Conference Rankings in Bowl Games

The SEC has one remaining bowl game for the national "championship." But for bragging rights the Pac 10 still has the only perfect record. The two SEC teams that lost weren't exactly impressive. Alabama looked pathetic against Utah. The one unanswered question in the BCS series after January 8, will be whether USC, which dominated Penn State, could have won against any team in January - as many commentators think they could have. In the Rose Bowl SC scored on 5 of its 6 first possessions. It was clear to any viewers had Penn State begun to come back the Trojans could have fired it up again. Until a playoff system is established we will not be able to answer the simple question of who is the best team in the nation.
