Yep,
And whats neat with bgp or ospf there are a ton of knobs to turn if
needed for specific filtering of specific routes.
In a sense you could control or force a route to go one or the other
with in your own network.

Correct, but it's a bit cleaner if they are.
The two different routers will be advertising default routes. Traffic
will go to the nearest Provider Edge (PE) router. If the other PE
router has the better route, having them connected via layer 2 better
moves the traffic to the other PE.
Having iBGP running on all routers between the two PEs makes it even
better, but at the cost of making sure all of the routers between are
capable of it.

The two BGP routers do not need to be on the same L2 network for the
iBGP connection.

A BGP speaker would be a router speaking BGP. In this case, most
likely your routers at the edge of your network that connect to
your providers.
Are the routers that are between your two BGP routers capable of
running BGP, resource wise?
Can you do a VPLS tunnel between your two BGP routers? If not,
what about a VLAN?

Mike, i said helmet, explain it to me like you would a 10 year
old, then dumb it down to my level from there.
I dont know what a bgp speaker is

Your OSPF network will just use default routes to get to your
BGP speakers.
Your BGP speakers with full routes will choose the best path.
Your BGP speakers should be connected together, via direct
connection, layer 2 tunnel (VPLS) or via intermediary iBGP
speakers. Those iBGP speakers in the middle of your network
will route the correct way, based on BGP.

We currently have a /22 with 2 /24 statically routed in each
of our providers. We are moving to BGP.
What Im still unclear on is how my OSPF network is going to
decide on the best path for data to flow externally
can somebody give me the helmet version of how this is
accomplished
