Top 10 BCS Bowl Slights: 2001 Fiesta Bowl #3

Ted Miller of ESPN.com wrote an article today about the Top 10 Slights in the BCS Bowl history and listed the Fiesta Bowl in 2001 as the number 3 slight of all time.

Now Justin says Oregon has benefited greatly from the BCS. Without the BCS Oregon would not have played Colorado in the Fiesta Bowl and instead would have played Illinois from the Big-10. Also think back to how good that Miami Hurricane football team was back in 2001 and would Oregon beat them if they met in the title game? With the Ducks going to the Title game instead of the Fiesta Bowl Oregon might not have that bowl title in their hands and all that momentum gained from the blow out.

So the question is, do you agree with Justin that the BCS has been good for Oregon? Or has it been Bad?
