    Ok, what if UCLA pulls out some sort of miracle. How would that affect the BCS? That would put Michigan playing Ohio State again. Thinking Florida wins, then who would LSU play in the Rose? Louisville???

    ....something else. I just noticed CFN had Arkansas winning and playing Notre Dame in the Sugar, but still had LSU in the Rose. Are our chances really "THAT" good for Roses?

    If that happened, LSU would play USC in the Rose Bowl.

    My key question is : if Florida loses, why are LSU's chances down (or out?) for the Rose Bowl? Shouldn't LSU move up to number 4 in the BCS rankings or can ARKY leap frog LSU ? I understand that Gators beat LSU earlier in the season, and for teams with the same win-loss record, they have the edge. But will there be considerations that LSU did beat ARKY late in the season, the same team that in turn beat Florida, if that turns out to be the case.I understand that only two teams from the same conference can be in the BCS Bowl, but shouldn't they also look at the BCS rankings? and therefor pick the teams accordingly?

    This is stressful...............and confusing............

    BCS rankings are a measuring stick, but nothing more.

    Just let Florida win this game and get it over with.

    I will be pulling for them (unless USC loses earlier in the day), but my head says Arkansas in a route.

    The LSU is upside down... :hihi:

    Besides, doesn't an Ark win make our win over Ark look stronger, thus giving us a better ranking?
