A share? lol.

Come on ACC beat those SEC opponents. That includes you Wake Forest.

Guess FSU wasn't so underrated after all.

Hope ND chokes as well.

Well, we're a Notre Dame choke away from an all-SEC title game.

Just what the nation wants to see!

No way I watch the title game this year regardless as I loathed all the teams still in play going into this weekend. So just rooting against FSU and ND as those are my to most hated teams outside of WVU rivals like Pitt and VT.

Ahahahah. Shut the up.

This Notre Dame game has been more stressful than the Florida game, now that Florida won... not looking too good for title game hopes, though. Notre Dame looks impressive.

What the hell was Kiffin thinking? Down by two scores and he decides to roll the dice on 4th down after being stuffed twice?

FUCK YEAH, IRISH IN THE TITLE GAME! 1 MORE TO GO FELLAS!

Well the Wolverines couldn't quite get it done against the Buckeyes but at least they lost by a respectable margin. Just think, if OSU hadn't earned their postseason play ban they would only have to beat Nebraska again to have an excellent chance of playing N.Dame for the championship in an all midwest matchup!

Now that the title game is sure to be the SEC champ versus the Irish, we are just left to wonder about the other BCS bowl invites. Obviously we'll have the ACC, Big East, Big Ten, Pac 12, and Big 12 champs among them. I'd also bet on both Florida and Oregon getting selected. That leaves only one more at large pick, it surely won't be from the Big East and probably not the Big Ten either. If Florida St. and K.State win the ACC and Pac 12, I'd guess it will be either Clemson or Oklahoma.

Kent State? #15-21 all lost this weekend, and #22 was idle. They could easily move up to #16, and a 16th ranked MAC champion gets a BCS bid if they're higher ranked than an AQ champ, which they would be over the Big East.

There's no doubt for Florida, they'll be in the top 4 and they will get a BCS bowl no matter what.


BCS Championship: Notre Dame vs. Alabama/Georgia

Fiesta Bowl: Kansas State/Oklahoma vs. Oregon

Rose Bowl: Stanford/UCLA vs. Nebraska/Wisconsin

Sugar Bowl: Florida vs. Oklahoma/Kent State

Orange Bowl: Florida State/Georgia Tech vs. Rutgers/Louisville

I didn't even realize they had a shot but you're right Geno, the Golden Flashes could actually pull it off. They are actually a pretty decent team although they were crushed by Kentucky in their loss. They'll face off against a one loss N.Illinois squad that lost by a single point to Iowa in their first game for the MAC title. I'm sure that a victory in that game would only help Kent St.'s case as NIU could also be in the BCS top 25 at that time. I think it would be pretty great if they finish at 16 or higher above a Big East winning Rutgers because they beat the Scarlet Knights head to head. Thanks for the heads up, now I have a team to pull for in the MAC title game. C'mon Kent State!

It's interesting; the BCS sent out a press release of the 25 teams still under consideration last week, and Northern Illinois wasn't on the list. However, they were ranked in the human polls last week (ahead of Kent State even), and with everyone losing this week that should put them in the top 25. While not a lock, odds are good that the winner of the MAC Championship is BCS bound.

Good gravy, the possibility of the Yellow Jackets taking on the Big East winner is awful. Those predictions are pretty similar to what I was also thinking now that Kent St. has been entered into my possible options. The Rose Bowl is a done deal and both conferences will be happy that they get to have the traditional match between conference champions. If Oklahoma loses to TCU and Kent St. also falters, then Clemson could get in. We'll all know soon enough I guess.

I hope so, the MAC had a pretty solid season this year. Although facing off against a team like Florida would be quite a tall order, the payday and exposure would be great for the MAC.

EDIT: Full disclosure, my first degree was from a MAC school.

Pretty sure that Clemson will drop out of the top 14(?) or whatever is required for an at-large bid.

You are totally right, I take back everything I wrote recently regarding Clemson and the BCS bowls. For some reason, I had it in my head that they beat S.Carolina yesterday. I'm not really sure why that was but I thought the scores were reversed.
