There are six conferences (ACC, Big East, Big 12, Big 10, PAC 10, and SEC) and one independent school (Notre Dame) that have automaticly qualifying status for a BCS game. Teams in these conferences would be your BCS teams. The other five conferences (MWC, C-USA, WAC, MAC, and SBC) and two independents (Army and Navy) are not automatic qualifiers and can only make it to a BCS bowl game through an "at-large" bid. These would be your non-BCS teams. Although the BCS considers ALL teams to be "BCS teams" with the division being between automatic and non-automatic qualifiers.

All three components shall be added together and averaged for a team's ranking in the BCS Standings. The team with the highest average shall rank first in the BCS Standings. The BCS Standings will be used for: 1. Selecting the teams that will participate in the national championship game. 2. Determining any other automatic qualifiers; and, 3. Establishing the pool of eligible teams for at-large selection.
Starting in 1936 (when the AP first awarded a National Championship), and assuming that you are asking about teams that are CURRENTLY non-automatic qualifyers for a BCS bowl, there are acctually 3. TCU - 1938 Army - 1944, 1945 BYU - 1984
Due to their unique status as a football independent, they receive an automatic BCS bid if they finish in the top 10% of all teams in the BCS standings.
