to say that the "BCS" picked XX team and screwed XX team isn't exactly correct, from what I understand.

You're correct. Each bowl game gets to select who they want, one team at a time. By the time it got back around to the Fiesta Bowl, the highest-ranked team was Cincy, followed by Boise St. It was written in the paper today that the officials chose Boise St. for several reasons, but mostly because last year the Cincy fans didn't travel well. Remember, it's all about $$$
