It doesn't even have to be that far fetched.

1. Oregon state beats USC
2. Utah beats Oregon state
3. TCU beats Oklahoma
4. BYU beats all remaining opponents, including TCU and Utah.

That is a complelling argument for a #2 spot.

Not that it's likely ... but it "could" happen.

Honestly, my dream scenario is for USC, Oklahoma and A SEC team to all finish the season unblemished. Who do you keep out of the title game? Even better would be the winner of the Big 10 to finished undefeated as well, with 4 teams undefeated and all worthy of a title shot. Throw in one or two undefeated non-BCS teams (sounds a lot like 2004) and you've got yourself a cluster right there. Which is just what the BCS needs.
Er.....didnt your dream scenario already happen, plus 2 other teams from the MWC and the WAC? SC, Oklahoma, and Auburn were undefeated, as were Utah and BSU.

To answer your question as to who gets left out, the answer is the SEC...sorry Auburn.

So this year, not sure why it would be any more controversial.
