i see what i did, i looked at wrong poll. i looked at ap poll, not bcs.

in ap poll, texas was 3rd and ou 4th going into ccg games (tt 8th)
in coaches, ou was 2nd, texas 3rd, tt 8th.
harris, texas 3rd, ou 4th, tt 8th

but in bcs, ou was 2nd, texas 3rd, tt 7th. this is the one that the tie breaker used.

Yep.

OU was ahead of Texas in the BCS rankings after the regular season, and that was the final tie-breaker for the CCG.
Mack Brown engineered a change in the tie-breaker rules right after that. True fact.
