Most all of them; They won by larger margins against against five of six like opponents including a 44 point drubbing against the team that beat Texas. The only exception is the A&M match-up in which Texas won by a margin two points greater then Oklahoma.
Also Oklahoma's non-conference schedule is considerably better including TCU and Cincinnati; both have been ranked in the top 10 this season.

Actually in the NFL system the Sooners would get in also. Texas Tech has one loss as well so head to head is thrown out and it goes to division record (same), conference record (same) and finally scoring margin where Oklahoma has the edge over the Longhorns and the Red Raiders.
The BCS will never be fair but there are just as many if not more arguments for Oklahoma then Texas.
To me this Bowl season has proven a few things.
1. The bowls (to goddamn many) are now all meaningless and thus mostly terrible. Still I can live with half the bowls being meaningless, but when the Orange Bowl sucked as hard as it did this year...geez.
2. Need a playoff or plus one system now; Utah, USC and Texas, if they win vs. OSU all will have just as good if not better claims to the National Championship at the end of the season as will the winner of the Oklahoma\Florida game.
