If that's a prediction, I hope your pulling for us.

A lot of back room mischief goes on in these bowl games. That's as much of the tradition as the pageantry.

Iowa has owned Penn St. the last few years, and they travel well. Bowls usually get who they want, if it's close.

I'd like to see Florida NOT get another SEC championship, but I think they will. Florida was a much tougher opponent for us than Bama was.

I'd like to see Tebow NOT get another Heisman either. The Bama defense making him look human would help with that.

I'd also like to see LSU beat Iowa in a bowl game for obvious reasons. But Penn State wouldn't be bad except for their hideous uniforms.

You do realize, that georgia was not happy with the officials in your game.

But in their conspiracy theories, they don't readily include LSU, they simply loathe the SEC office.

That's the SEC way.

I don't remember Georgia getting phucked out of a pick. Though I was only listening on the radio.

SEC officiating just blows. Bottome line.

Bama is primed for a super hero type performance, of course I'm highly influenced by my environment.

Just want to say, a few years ago, I was in San Antoine when the Iowa fans were down there. I really enjoyed their fans and they do travel well.
River walk and Iowa fans, man that was fun!!

Corny, but all I have to spice up Tebow nonsense.

Wasn't a great year for them.

On a side note, since 2007, Bama has had to play 17 SEC teams who had a bye before they played us. The next closest was LSU, only 5.

This year we lead the way with 3, LSU 2, Florida 1, Tenn. 0.

Probably doesn't matter, unless your the one on the receiving end.

both of those 2 were UF and Bama. Ouch. Meyer and Saban both had 2 weeks to prepare for LSU.

Yeah, weren't we suppost to get crushed by GT last year?

"9. Penn State 10-2
Last Week: Didn’t Play This Week
Next Game: Bowl Game
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: This is a strong, veteran team that might fly under the radar this bowl season. Could the Nittany Lions get a shot at LSU in the Capital One? They’re not just good enough to win; they’re good enough to win easily.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: Yes, we promise, we’ll readjust for the loss to Iowa when the season is over. The Nittany Lions are higher than the Hawkeyes right now because Ricky Stanzi is still hurt.

16. LSU 9-3
Last Week: W, Arkansas 33-30 OT
Next Week: Bowl Game
Why The Ranking Should Be Higher: It might not always be pretty, but the team (Ole Miss gaffe aside) finds ways to get the job done. The athletes are there, and the team, even this late in the season, appears to be maturing nicely. Watch out in the bowl, likely against Penn State in the Capital One.
Why The Ranking Should Be Lower: The Tigers simply aren’t that great. The offense continues to have problems finding any consistent production, while the offensive line is having real problems. It doesn’t want to face Penn State’s defensive front. "

while the guys at cfn dont have such kind words for LSU in a matchup against Penn St, it does make it much more interesting for me.

If Nebraska beats Texas, the Hawkeyes will most likely be in the CapOne. It would be great to play LSU again, but something tells me you may be Cotton Bowl bound.

This makes no sense. The Cap One would pick an unranked team with a worse record? That is their only other choice.

LaSalleAve · Nov 30, 2009

So, Hawker, If Nebraska beats Texas, and Cincy beats Pitt, its probably Cincy and the SEC champ in the MNCG in Pasadena, Ohio State and Pac 10 champ in Rose, Nebraska and TCU in Fiesta, and here is where it gets interesting, Sugar would be either SEC loser and Texas, Boise or Iowa, and Orange would be ACC champ vs. Texas, Boise, or Iowa. Does that sound about right?

For those wondering, we played and lost to Penn St. in the 1974 Orange Bowl, 16-9

This ain't 1974 and the slow 10 has yet to prove even their best can play with any SEC team. I like our chances too. With time to prepare the hat will dominate.:miles:
