I still think it comes down to who OU has to play in their CG game. If they play a 6-5 Nebraska again (which will thought of as irrelevant by most voters), then I think an impressive win by Auburn over Tennessee gets them the required votes to vault into the #2 slot in the BCS. If OU plays a 7-4 Colorado team playing good ball (they play Nebraska next week), then I think OU holds off Auburn if both have big wins in their CG. Of course OU could play a 7-4 Iowa State (if they beat Missou). I think that game would fall somewhere between the Nebraska and Colorado game in terms of what it means to the voters. Then you flip a coin.
I have since found out that Nebraska has no chance at the North title. It comes down to CU and Iowa State. Iowa State has no name clout. Colorado does. So Auburn fans should pull for a Iowa State win or a Colorado loss, or best of all, both lose and OU plays a 6-5 Iowa State team.
