Here's their predictions as of right now and it looks like another OSU vs Michigan game is at hand. I like the idea of Auburn playing Penn State. They're assuming Florida would win the Seccg and play ND. I don't care if its Florida or Arkansas but please if you play ND whip their arse! I also noticed they are leaving out South Carolina in favor of Bama but so long as they beat Clemson they have nothing to worry about. Anyone else like to comment?

Texas & USC would dominate against BS (no pun intended) and WVU.
Gatech would match up well with louisville. I think it SUCKS that the big least could have 2 in the BCS. Then again this could expose the lack of defense in the big least so that could be good for the SEC.
As for UF I would LOVE the sugar bowl if it was ND we played. Nothing would feel better than spanking Charlie's ass especially after his cheeseburger comment.

They have us going to the MPC Bowl. Where is that? Our fans travel too well. I think we will go somewhere closer. Also don't we have a better SEC conference record than Bama. SC 3-5 Bama 2-6. Shouldn't that put us ahead of Bama?

I'd love to see Boise get a BCS game just so they can get their butt's kicked and we wouldn't have to hear anymore about it. However, if they play Texas I'll have to pull for them. Just as long as they don't play the Big Least champion. They might have a chance to win that one.

Even if we SC goes 6-6 I just don't see us getting left out of a bowl. Our fans travel too well. I think we will go somewhere. Also don't we have a better SEC conference record than Bama. SC 3-5 Bama 2-6. Shouldn't that put us ahead of Bama?

Not really. A few years ago a 6-5 Bama team went bowling and a 7-4 Ole Miss team was left at home. A 7-5 SC HAS to go before a 6-6 Bama team, but anything goes if both finish 6-6. (If that happens I would bet either Kentucky og UGA would fill in for another conference, leaving 2 SEC bids available for both Bama and SC.)

I'm rooting for Miami and Virginia to lose so the ACC has an extra spot open :laugh: .

IF LSU can beat Arkansas, they could still get an at large to the BCS depending on how other things shake out. It's sort of a longshot, but still possible.

The SEC is not getting any respect from anyone. To be the best football conference and not have a team in the NC game is a crime, and not have at least two in the BCS is a double crime. I don't understand it at all. Who besides the people in the big ten area cares about a rematch of two conference teams. I think that was already setteled.

They pick:
UF vs. ND (Sugar)
Ark vs. Wiscy (Capital One)
AU vs. PSU (Outback)
LSU vs. Neb. (Cotton)
So.Car. vs. Nevada (MPC)
UT vs. VaTech (Peach)
UK vs. Houston (Liberty)
UGA vs. Maryland (Music City)
Bama vs. Ok.St. (Independence)

On a positive note, not only would the SEC get 9 bowl bids in this scenario, but could very well go undefeated, or 8-1. I would put serious money on a lot of SEC teams in those matchups.

How sweet would it be if the SEC went 9-0 in these games and the BIG LEAST went 0-2 in the BCS?

here is the ESPN predicitons. I dont know about yall, but I think if Tennessee goes to the Music City bowl I will be highly upset. I mean it all depends on whether or not another SEC team gets into the BCS mix. Only in the SEC would a team that ends up 9-3 go to a bowl like Music City. The Music City bowl in my eyes is a "lower" tier bowl for the SEC. I think the best UT can do right now with all the good teams in SEC is Cotton Bowl. I guess people will give excuse that UGA needs to be in Chick fil a bowl because of attendance, but UT travels well and Atlanta is close.

I have you guys picked to beat clemson.Or UPSET clemson, however you want to put it. You guys might get some AP poll votes if that happens.
Anyways if you guys finish 7-5 I think you will get a decent bowl.

CBS has moved us to the Motor City Bowl vs. Central Michigan...One of the two ESPN projections has us there too.

Man...A few hours ago I thought Boise, Idaho vs. Nevada sounded bad.

Corndogs versus the Cornhuskers. Sounds like a match made in deep fryer heaven.

As long as we don't play Wisconsin again I'll be happy. Boring playing them every year and they look pretty good.

I would like to see Auburn in the Cotton Bowl. A little change of pace from the Big 10. An Auburn vs Husker or an Auburn Okie matchup would be nice. Not likely but still a thought.

Yup, my dad is an OU alumni so that would be a lot of fun.
