The difference is Oregon St. lost 4 games last year and that game was played in October or early November. Boise St was undefeated (regardless of who they played) and they beat OU in a a BCS bowl game.

In BCS bowl games (along with the Super Bowl) it's always a case of the winner is the better team. I mean, Ohio State was the best team in the country the last two times they played in the National Championship (going into the game anyways), but they lost. I've never heard a Buckeye fan saying they were the best team, but it just wasn't their day.
