Why is the BCS a crock? MSU-Alabama or UConn-Oklahoma

UConn is going to a BCS game. What a joke of a BCS game.

Jeff Sagarin ranked UConn #62 in his ratings of teams for the BCS.
UConn is 8-4. MSU is 11-1.
UConn lost to Michigan 30-10, a team Michigan State beat by 17.
UConn also lost to Temple 30-16, Rutgers 27-24, and Louisville 26-0.

What's better is the Capital One Bowl, with Michigan State facing the defending national champion Alabama Crimson Tide and Nick $aban. That's gonna be one helluva game. A shitload better than UConn vs Oklahoma. The Sooners will win by at least 40 points.

The early line is that Oklahoma is favored by 17 points over UConn. The other BCS matchups? Wisconsin by 3 over TCU in the Rose Bowl, Stanford by 3 over Virginia Tech in the Orange Bowl, Ohio State by 3 over Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl, And, Auburn by 3 over Oregon in the BCS Title game.
