BCS Bowl Projections

[steelcityroller]

Who do you guys think we will get for the BCS Bowls?

[Quinnsanity]

Orange: FSU vs. Rutgers
Fiesta: K-state vs. LSU
Sugar: Florida vs. Oregon
Rose: Stanford vs. Nebraska
NC: Notre Dame vs. Alabama

I'm assuming LSU gets the nod over the other two loss SEC teams (A&M, Georgia, South Carolina) but I'm not an expert on the BCS rules, so if there can't be three SEC teams playing in the top games (which is BS, but whatever) then Oklahoma replaces LSU.

I don't think you can have 3 teams from the same conference.

That would be one of the worst Rose Bowl matchups in awhile.

And the Orange Bowl.... WoW but that game here recently has been mediocre

For some reason Im thinking that the Fiesta gets their pick before the Sugar bowl and seemingly would take Oregon.

I'd much rather see us play Oregon but I think it will be a 2008 Championship rematch against Oklahoma in the Sugar.

Only two teams from one Conference can be in the BCS, unless they changed the rules. LSU won't get in a BCS game.

Sugar gets first pick according to what I read.

[Pinstripe power]

you can only have 2 teams from a conference in the BCS games, so bad news for LSU and the bama gerogia loser. your ten BCS teams are imo these ten:

ND vs Bama
Stanford vs Nebraska
FSU vs Rutgers
Oreogn vs KSU
Florida vs Oklahoma

I know this isn't the best source, but it could spark discussion at least. Being an NIU alum it would be cool to see them face FSU in a BCS bowl. Even though they would probably get destroyed. Also I would be pissed if Georgia beats Bama and gets in the title game. Their one loss was by 28. I have a hard time rewarding a team for that.

Oregon will face the Big 12 Champ in the Fiesta Bowl. Also, Boise State may worm their way into a BCS bowl...lol

Yeah I saw Brad Edwards tweet the following earlier today...

Brad Edwards ‏@JBradEdwards
If UCLA (at Stanford) & Texas (at KSU) both lose, it will be really close for Boise or MAC champ to reach top 16 and BCS game

Brad Edwards ‏@JBradEdwards
Non-AQ team wouldn't have to pass the 2nd Big 12 team to bump it from BCS. Just has to finish top 16 and ahead of Big East champ

Brad Edwards ‏@JBradEdwards
Why? Because BCS rules say the highest-ranked non-AQ conference champ is in BCS if top 16 and ahead of an AQ champ

Can't wait for the playoff lol.

I don't think NIU is getting destroyed easily. They would scare a lot of teams. I would take them over any Big East school.

Probably the most underrated program out there.

I understand your point, but that's not saying much

Same here.

More on Georgia, Florida was the only ranked team they beat. Their next best win was Vanderbilt who went 8-4. After Vanderbilt their next best win was Ole Miss or Georgia Tech...both 6-6. The other 7 teams they faced have losing records or were FCS level.

Looks like Louisville will be in the Sugar or Orange bowl.
