Bowl Selection thread

Not sure how "fischer" can be right, unless wispy is wrong about the non-aq top 12 bid. Could it possibly be Bailer - Alamo, Boise - Sugar, OU or K-State - Cotton, OU or K-State - somewhere below the Alamo?
source?
That is very true. :lol:
junc, follow him https://twitter.com/#!/BryanDFischer/
So that means that K-juco is getting a BCS bid?
Precisely, the Sugar
Done. But I'm not seeing where he's said Boise is shut out of the BCS, other than his "piecing things together" that seems to be based on some assumptions about Big 12 bowl seeding...
OK, looked at the BCS selection criteria... The confusion seems to be that for the top 12 non-AQ thing to apply, the team has to be the conference champion. Which is why Boise doesn't get an automatic bid. And the top 4 bid for Stanford only applies if the #3 team doesn't get in that way. Assuming OSU stays at #3, I think Stanford should have an auto-bid.
Also, to get an auto-bid you have to be in the top 14 of the final rankings. Meatchicken was #16 last week. All the talk about them being in was apparently a load of crap - they obviously didn't end up qualifying.
Kind of interesting that Kjsu would beat out Va Tech for the Sugar Bowl. Might have a lot to do with the Big 12 having more mojo than the ACC, and maybe something to do with Va Tech playing in the Sugar Bowl a few times recently, I think. EDIT: Or maybe not... :lol:

A 2-loss VT team coming off a blowout loss in the CCG gets a BCS invite?!? I'll believe it when I see it.

When is the BCS selection show and what channel?
Which means Bammer is in the MNCG... And pretty much 100% certainty of OSU/Stanford in the Fiesta, which should be huge fun.

My bad, I must have misread the top-12 thing, I didn't know it had a conference champion tag on it.

Thanks very much. We have been waiting for these f*ckers since 2004! Our hatred for them is only surpassed by...well, your hatred for them.
Photos or stories anyone wants to PM me which cast them in a horrible light would be appreciated for my board.

dude, **** off. You used to be cool, now all you do is troll. Kinda sad really, a bama fan pounding his chest on a forum of a team that Bama hasn't played since the last time that team was ina bowl.

Why would the Sugar Bowl pass up a possible Stanford-Michigan matchup for a VTech-Michigan matchup?
They have first choice at the at-large teams and can dictate the selection process. Whoever they don't take with the first selection can be picked by the Fiesta but why risk losing a top 5 team? The Fiesta is just as likely of taking Boise State to face Oklahoma State as it is Michigan.

Stanford won't travel like VT.
This. Fair or not, that's the way most of these at-large BCS selections are made.

VT in the BCS is a ****ing joke, but it means Atlanta instead of Nashville for UVA, so helps out in that regard. Just a ****ing joke that losing the ACCCG ended up working out better for them. **** VT, what a farce.
The rematch is official.
