CBS Sports: UCF, O'Leary built BCS run from the ground up

Taken from a UCF poster (God, I wish we could say any of this about SMU!):

Article by Jeremy Fowler...from the article:

Now, UCF might be the second-best team in the state.

“I think the key ingredient is George O'Leary,” athletic director Todd Stansbury said. “Anybody that is trying to build a program essentially from scratch that first year, he just built a foundation and recruited the right players and instituted an ethic and culture that is really culminating.”

A Cincinnati loss to Louisville on Thursday or a UCF win over SMU in Saturday's season finale clinches an American title and a spot in the conference's last automatic BCS bid.

A Sugar Bowl matchup with Auburn is a realistic possibility. Understandably, the Knights want SMU first, in part to play their first complete game in awhile.

So has SMU ever played a team in a BCS Bowl season. Can't remember one?
