BCS Picture

Alright it's time to discuss the BCS picture. Take a look at the link to see how the games break down. It also comes with an explanation of how the at large teams are selected.

Here are my predictions for the 5 major match-ups. Im just picking who will be in them.

BCS CHAMPIONSHIP: Florida vs Texas. (Pasadena, CA)
I think Florida will beat alabama in the SEC championship and take this spot. Texas should handle Nebraska in its championship game and with Alabama losing, Texas will slide up from #3 to #2 landing in Pasedena.

ORANGE BOWL: Geogria Tech vs. Cincinnati (Miami, FL)
Both teams would have to win a big game to win its conference but I think Georgia Teach will handle Clemson while Cincy handles Pittsburgh landing the two in Miami

ROSE BOWL: Oregon vs. Ohio St. (Pasedena, CA)
This game is always Big 10 vs Pac-10. Ohio St. wrapped up the Big Ten last week but Oregon still needs to beat Oregon St. in the Civil war to land here.

SUGAR BOWL: Alabama vs. TCU (New Orleans, LA)
Alabama would get stuck here after a loss to Florida and TCU would be picked to play here as an AT LARGE.

FIESTA BOWL: Iowa vs. Boise St. (Phoenix, AZ)
If this is the match-up, it would be the first bowl game that inlcuded two AT LARGE teams. Iowa would have the highest ranking of the remaining teams not to be picked for a bowl game and Boise is undefeated and sitting at 6th in the rankings.
