EDIT: Updated for this years BCS games.
Just thought I'd check out the BCS history after 5 years. A few interesting things stick out. The BigTen and Big12 seem to be the best conferences (most games by the most teams), but the Pac10 is very close behind with 7 games by 7 different teams. That kinda surprised me. The other thing is how big a joke the ACC (and to a lesser degree BigLeast) is. I mean 5 games played, 4 of those by 1 team? Things are going to change in a BIG way for both those conferences.
