If OSU was #1 in the BCS the Rose Bowl would have had first pick, I can't imagine they would take Smellinois over Georgia

That blows cause Georgia will kill Hawaii too

Easy, this preserves the Big 10/Pac 10 matchup. The Rose Bowl cares about this a lot more then seeing Georgia play in the game.

Michigans gonna get smacked by Florida.
(Btw Florida did get screwed like Wisky last year)

Arkansas will beat Mizzou but that will be close

Wisky's gonna beat Tennesse

Kentucky over Florida St. easy

Penn St. and TExas A&M i dunno

Arizona St. will beat Texas

Cal over Air Force


As far as the NC i think its gonna be a lot closer then you think Semi...depending on Dorsey's Health: When he was healthy and looked unstoppable but after that Chop Block he's been struggling and they havent been nearly as effective.

They have a similiar Leak Tebow combo w/ Flynn and Perriloux but Tebow was a much more effective runner then Per because of his size; Yet Flynn's got a better arm.

The main factor will be is whether Lsu can contain Beanie Wells and if Bockman plays good or like he did against Illinois

End result: Lsu:21 OSU: 24 on a last second field goal (Gotta go w/ my team)

EIGHT of the 12 SEC teams have been named to bowl games.


That's 67% of the South Eastern Conference who is making bowl appearances. What other conference can make such a claim????


Heck, we're showing up in 25% of the bowl games.....what other conference can make that claim as well?





OSU will get slaughtered just like they did last year and Wiskie can't hold their booze like the good old hillbillies from Tennessee.

Kentucky over FSU is a give me as is Florida over Michigan, Arkansas is going to have their hands full.

You think Arkansas will beat Missouri but Wisky will beat Tennessee?????

I do think Ark and Missouri will be a war But I think zouri has too much O for them. Tennessee is going to kill Wisky.

Florida/Michigan wont be a game, more like a mercy killing.

If Cal gets healthy its gonna be an ugly game against Air Force.

Colorado and Bama play, That should be fun

Penn State and Tex A&M should be good

SC/Illinois is a terrible matchup. You can go back through my posts and see I have been pretty humble about USC all year but Illinois don't belong on the same field with them. SC Georgia would have been the game of the year. It sucks for Georgia cause what do they prove IF they beat Hawaii? They don't really have anything to get motivated for unless something crazy like give Brennan the Heisman (i now think Tebow has it)

OK/West Virginny should be fun too.

8 of 11 Big Ten teams are in bowl games.



I think OSU will give LSU a better game then you guys give us credit for.



I do feel sorry for Michigan tho... Its going to be ugly.

I think Wiksy can most definitly play with Tennessee, Cal beat the Vol's decently and they ended top 25
Alabama walked on them as an unranked team.

They haven't looked extremely impressive all year, and while Wisky is an inconstent team. They'll get their star rusher back who has been injured nearly all season.

Just callin it early

But Tennessee played Cal before Cal had the injuries. I would be shocked if it is even close.

In addition on the Vols, we have a REALLY green defensive secondary and a REALLY green wide reciever corps. They've really stepped up since the loss to Alabama and it's a FAR improved team today.

What's more, we gave LSU a good run for their money in the SEC championship and I think that's a far better example of who Wiskey is going to meet.

The Vols are not top 10 quality this year, but they are FAR more dangerous than Whisky.
