This is all stupid.

Florida can beat LSU...LSU beats Bama....LSU beats Georgia (again) in the SECCG and undefeated Oregon and Florida St. play for it all.

Boom.

Oh yea....SoCal beating Oregon. Nope.

Notre Dame? Really! Louisville and Boise St. Do these guys watch the games?
Do they really see them winning 2 of 3 from Stanford, USC and OU. They will lose all three!

I would love to see that Fiesta matchup. I'd also like to see Bama FSU if we don't make it. The others look like wasted crap though.

When did the "Buffalo Wild Wings" Bowl start. Must be new.

Still not as funny as the "Famous Idaho Potatoes" Bowl. What does that trophy look like?

Speaking of Idaho, I had a Boise State fan come in for help in job search one day. He had no self-esteem and no girl friend. I told him to get one of those Speedo swim suits and then shove a long potato down his suit and see what happened when he hit the beach. He came back wearing his Speedo the next day very upset. "They were all laughing at me," he said. I looked at him, "No, no, you put the potato down the front of your suit, not the back."

I say Kansas St in Fiesta instead of Boise


Won't be two Big 12 teams in the Fiesta Bowl. Maybe K St instead of W. Virginia. But I doubt it.

You guys pointed out the one I saw. If Boise didn't get an at large bid last year.... a one loss non aq team will never get an at large bid.


I understand what you are saying, but there are different stipulations that give an Non AQ an auto bid beyond just being in the top 4.

Not that you are biased or anything, but a 9-3 ND in the top 14 qualifies and is hence a lock.

ETA: The Big East still gets an auto bid, so who, if not Louisville wins that conference?

Has to be in the top 8 to be guaranteed a spot. But I know what you're saying, if ND is 9-3 they'll get in. Hell, I'm suprised they didn't jump up to #2 this week.

to be guarenteed a spot, but to be eligible i think its top 14. Lets be honest, if ND is eligible, they are in.

also peeps might want to read the explaination, he has Boise as an AQ even with 1 loss. There are different ways a non BCS team can earn an AQ.

The fact that Bama is in obviously will be because they beat us. But I thought the SEC second place , which would be the loser in the Championship game, would go to the Sugar?

Nope, in fact the only times the loser of a CCG got an at large bid was with 08 Bama and 09 Fla. 03 OU was an auto qualifer for the CG.

The SugarBowl is only contractually obligated to take the SEC Champion (not the loser of the SEC Championship) if the SEC Champion isn't selected for the BCS National Championship game. But, here are the rules, if you'd like to read them...
