So.. I was way off on my first projections . Notre Dame and Michigan let me down . So , Now that things are starting to look clear I've revamped my BCS bow projections and I think these make more sense . Let me know what yall think . Teams in Bold are my winners and scores are on side . Rose Bowl - #4 Oregon V.S. #8 Michigan State (41-17) Sugar Bowl - #5 Boise State V.S. #3 Alabama (44-10) Fiesta Bowl - #7 Houston V.S #9 Kansas State (37-35) Orange Bowl - #19 Cincinnati V.S #6 Virginia Tech (27-20) BCS Natinal Championship- #2 Oklahoma State V.S. #1 LSU (38-28)
Rose Bowl #4 Oregon vs. #8 Wisconsin (38-33) Sugar Bowl #6 Stanford vs. #3 Alabama (30-17) Fiesta Bowl #9 Oklahoma vs. #5 Boise State (41-30) Orange Bowl #22 Cincinnati vs. #7 Virginia Tech (34-14) BCS National Championship #2 Oklahoma State vs. #1 LSU (51-24) Wisconsin is easily the best team in the Big 10 this year and Penn State is dealing with this bullcrap pedophile case so their season is about to fall apart and Wisconsin will beat Penn State at Camp Randle to win that division over Joe Pa. Wisconsin beats whoever they play from the other division. Stanford is WAY too attractive a matchup for the Sugar Bowl to pass up against the vaunted Bama defense. Match made in heaven for them. If Stanford beats Oregon this weekend, I think you can move Oregon to the Sugar Bowl, I think they take the 2nd best PAC 12 team to play Bama regardless. Would be interesting to see how Bama's defense handles Oregon. I think they would be in trouble because of the speed to the edge. If Jefferson and Ford can do what they did Saturday night, Oregon could have a field day. It would still come down to their QB making enough plays passing the ball, which I am not convinced he could do. FYI, Boise State and Houston both can't be selected as automatic qualifiers. One or the other, although I guess you are saying that Houston is selected as an at-large. Winners are on the right hand side of the teams listed, btw.
I got K-state because i see OU losing to Okie state and a late loss could drop them behind K-state if they win out . Also , Im not a fan of Stanfords Schedule , they lose tp the only top ranked they play and drop like wisconsin did . I kno Houston and Boise don't have imressive schedules , but they do go undefeated and in the top 7 . I got OU playing and beating Arkansas in the Cotton Bowl .
K-State either won't win out (which is likely) or what is a definite is the Fiesta Bowl opting for a rematch of the 2006 season with OU and Boise State. It would be an easy sellout and good ratings. BCS ratings don't matter, these bowls take what makes them the most money. Kansas State is not a sexy pick.
True , and your right , a rematch would be good , but I think if they can get past Texas they can get in . I think Boise will go to Sugar because they wanna see what boise does against a true SEC team .
Order of selection this year is: Fiesta, Sugar and Orange. Fiesta already would have replaced their automatic Big 12 champ with Oklahoma. They would then get to select the first at-large bid and they will not pass up on an undefeated Boise State. So it's not that the Sugar would pass up on Boise but that they would not be able to select them because the Fiesta already picked them. The Fiesta picking KState has utter financial disaster written all over it.
