It's been years, this one seems real:

How’s this for BCS chaos? No. 1 and No. 2 lose, Notre Dame moves to top spot<cite class="byline vcard"></cite>http://l.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/UccbNthdpKWPnrhD7QgSjA--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Zmk9ZmlsbDtoPTQwO3E9ODU7dz00MA--/http://l.yimg.com/os/388/2012/09/07/frank-jpg_213438.jpghttp://l.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/UccbNthdpKWPnrhD7QgSjA--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Zmk9ZmlsbDtoPTQwO3E9ODU7dz00MA--/http://l.yimg.com/os/388/2012/09/07/frank-jpg_213438.jpgBy Frank Schwab (http://sports.yahoo.com/author/frank-schwab/)

</abbr>Notre Dame is suddenly very much alive for a national championship. Alabama and Georgia are too. Oregon and Kansas State may never quite recover from this heartbreak.
This is the type of Saturday night that makes college football what it is.
The BCS Championship Game picture was changed dramatically when Kansas State was embarrassed 52-24 at Baylor and Oregon blew a lead in the final minutes of regulation and lost
17-14 to Stanford in overtime. The Wildcats and Ducks were ranked 1 and 2 in the BCS standings. Now they're out - at least, unless there's more chaos before the season is over.
And Notre Dame, which hasn't won a national title since 1988, is now in the driver's seat.
The Irish won 38-0 against Wake Forest on Saturday afternoon, and then they watched the chaos unfold. If Notre Dame wins next week at USC, which might not have injured starting quarterback Matt Barkley, the Irish will play in Miami for the national championship.
The SEC, which has won six straight BCS championships, was on the outside looking in after Alabama's loss last week, but now that conference is almost assured a spot in the BCS Championship Game. If Alabama beats Auburn next week to win the SEC East Division, the winner of the Alabama-Georgia SEC Championship Game is almost certain to get an invitation to the BCS Championship Game. Alabama and Georgia will likely rank second and third in the new BCS standings.
And if Notre Dame loses at USC next week? Things are going to get really messy with a lot of one-loss teams claiming they belong in the BCS title game...
