Penn State and Ohio State beat Wisconsin. It is that simple...if one of those schools were not on probation, they would be in Rose Bowl.

It's a stupid nickname they gave themselves and they shoved it down people's throats until it stuck. It didn't even have to be true or quantified.

The same way Michael Jackson is the "King of Pop" or James Brown is "The Hardest Working Man in Show Business." It's a bullshite nickname. It doesn't even matter if its a fact. It is what it is.

The Rose Bowl is awesome, you truly won't appreciate it unless you have been there to watch your team play or played in it.

No joke. I'm convinced some posters only watch sports just to complain/criticize.

If a team that doesn't win it's own division can make it to the NC I don't really have a problem with a 5 loss conference champion in the Rose Bowl.

Tell me where I'm wrong. Or maybe you voted for Michael Jackson when he became King of Pop.

Some hack sportswriter gives the Rose Bowl a stupid nickname and everybody treats it like God came down and anointed the title himself.

How the frick does a team like Wisconsin even deserve to get to play in the Rose Bowl?


They won the the B1G, most SEC fans think everyone should have a CCG, well, that's what happens, you might get a team that loses 5 get in.

It is funny that NIU being in the Orange Bowl seems to bother ESPN more than UW in the Rose or UConn in the Fiesta.
