I don't understand how anyone can put Texas ahead of OU.

Over the past decade OU is 6-4 against Texas with 6 conference championships. Texas has ONE! OU has produced two Heisman winners and Texas has produced none.

Of Course Texas is going to have a slightly better bowl record. Texas is playing weaker opponents in their bowl games because OU is playing conference winners. Three of the teams OU has lost to have ended up being national champions. Meanwhile Texas is beating up on Iowa and winning Holiday bowls.

Don't fool yourself. That auburn fan is afraid of the Trojans, but I don't think anyone else is. I'd love to see Bama/USC series personally, especially now that talent is coming in.

Edit- On topic:

1.A UF
1.B USC
1.C LSU
OU
OSU

I think any of the co number ones could lift themselves above the rest if they win it all this year.

As you said before it's not just one season. LSU beat them in 1 year. Florida beat them in 1 year. Ohio State has had just as impressive decade as LSU. As mentioned before OSU has the second most BCS bowl wins. They beat maybe the best team of the decade not win the title in Miami (Fl) in 2002 title game. Over the whole decade I would go with this...
1. USC
2a. Ohio State
2b. LSU
4. Florida
5. Oklahoma

One thing not mentioned before is that OSU doesn't have the second most BCS bowl wins.

USC has 6
LSU has 4
OSU, Florida, Texas, and Miami have 3

USC, LSU, and Florida are clearly above hOSU by virtue of their national championships and lack of embarrassing losses. Texas has the same number of BCS wins, the same number of championships, and lack of embarrassing games outside of their games against the chokies, so I'd put them above hOSU as well.
