    If you lose a team to the title game, you get to pick a replacement before everyone else. So, if everything stands...

    The Sugar Bowl loses #1 Alabama, and thus would get the choose from every eligible team EXCEPT the other automatic bid winners (Big XII, B1G, AAC, Pac 12).
    The Orange Bowl loses #2 Florida State, and thus would get to choose from every eligible team EXCEPT the other automatic bid winners AND whoever the Sugar takes.
    The other 4 division winners are then assigned to their respective games and the bidding process then starts again.

    The selection for the final three at-large spots are on a rotating basis, with this year being 1. Orange, 2. Sugar, 3. Fiesta. So, all of his holding true, we can assume...

    Sugar loses Alabama, selects Texas A&M (SEC draw, Heisman winner)
    Orange loses Florida state, selects Clemson (ACC draw)
    Ohio State and Oregon fill the Rose
    UCF goes to the Orange as the AAC bid to play Clemson
    Baylor goes to the Fiesta as the Big XII bid

    The Sugar Bowl then selects Wisconsin as the first at-large
    The Fiesta Bowl then must select Fresno State or Northern Illinois (if either finish in the top 12 of the BCS, they automatically get a bid

    Alabama vs Florida State - National Championship
    Oregon vs Ohio State - Rose Bowl
    Texas A&M vs Wisconsin - Sugar Bowl
    Clemson vs Central Florida - Orange Bowl
    Baylor vs Fresno State - Fiesta Bowl

    So we need to HOPE AND PRAY that Clemson loses to USC when they play, I don't want to see a Clemson vs UCF game.

    It's gonna be a Clemson, Wisconsin, Notre Dame or Stanford vs UCF game...

    Someone has to play UCF.

    Also what is Clemson's "claim to fame" getting beat by 30? MSU deserves to be over them RIGHT NOW.

    Clemson has wins against 4 bowl eligible teams(UGA, BC, MD, GTech) with 3 more possible if Syracuse and Wake Forest both win out and if they would beat SCe.

    Sparty has wins against 3 bowl eligible teams(Iowa,Nebraska and Michigan) with the possibility of 1 additional win vs bowl-eligible team(Minnesota). If they beat OSU they are in the Rose Bowl.

    It could actually come down to Sparty or Wiscy and Clemson since there can't be 3 teams from the same conference in BCS bowls.
  • sportswizuhrd
    ^Scratch that, GT has to beat UGA in two weeks to be bowl eligible because they scheduled two FCS teams.

    The Bobcat implosion since the CMU loss has been remarkable. This team has clearly tossed in the towel.

    Tettleton (even Blankenship) have seemed to regress a ton this year. I told Firad I think he is a much better QB when he is more of a dual threat. I haven't noticed many design runs this year, at least compared to the last few. I would assume that is on the coaches.

    UCF has no business being in a BCS bowl game.

    I wouldnt be shocked if UCF wins their BCS bowl game, but of course everybody would chalk it up as their power conference opponent being "uninterested"

    if she was worried about being targeted before he was even the starter, she has a lot more to be worried about now.

    Agree on all points.

    NIU/Toledo kicking off in a few on ESPN2. Usually a pretty entertaining game. Might as well crown the winner MAC champ.

    Doubt it. BG is just as good as the other two, Toledo scored a last minute TD to win for christ sakes. Would love to see a rematch in Detroit, or a game vs. NIU

    Sick interception! Holy shit what a play

    bg needs to worry about getting by Buffalo first. I thought you were at the game?


    what an amazing pick. Dont think I have seen a defender break it up and pick it like that before

    No she got sick so we're just watching the game here. Shame cause I had great seats on the 50 lined up for $15 a piece

    Northern Illinois is not that great honestly. As I said earlier, UT-BG-NIU all about equal
