Well, only if the Rose Bowl doesn't decide to say screw the Pac10/Big10 tie in, like last year, because the BCS has bastardized the tradition of the bowls.

Getting ahead of yourself there, Tis.

KState vs. Okla in Big 12. Ohio St vs. Michigan in Big 10.
Who the heck is going to play in the SEC title game?
Ole Miss or LSU vs. TN/GA/FL
The SEC has got to be the most interesting conference in the country right now!"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic.

It is now definitely looking like an Oklahoma/USC Sugar Bowl. Wow...some great upsets today!"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic.

Things are getting awfully interesting.
Three one-loss teams left:
LSU still has to play at Alabama, at Mississippi, and Arkansas; plus, a potential SEC championship game.
Ohio State still has to play Purdue and at Michigan.
The smart money says neither of those teams makes it through unscathed.
That leaves USC--at Arizona, UCLA, and Oregon State. They certainly have an easier road; however, the Pac 10 is always dangerous, especially to front-runners. An upset is not out of the question by any stretch of the imagination.
So while USC is the most likely sacrificial lamb for the Sooners, do not discount the top-level two-loss teams; in particular, Michigan and Georgia could sneak in with big late season victories over one-loss teams (Ohio State and LSU, respectively).
And, if all hell breaks lose, we really could have a matchup of the undefeateds--Oklahoma vs. TCU.
(Speaking of Oklahoma, they still have a dangerous pair of games left following their next game with Baylor--at Texas Tech and then the Big 12 championship... both would be huge upsets, but it's not out of the realm of possibility that the Sooners drop one of the two. There could be major controversy if they drop the championship game, but still end up in N'awlins.)"My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

Fairly presumtuous that Georgia will be in the SEC championship game.Originally posted by Guynemer

Other than that I think you have the nail on the head."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic.

Obviously it's not a given that Georgia will play in the SEC championship, but I think they have the best chance to move up the board if they do...
Tennessee may actually have the inside track now that they beat Miami; they may shoot ahead of the Dawgs in the BCS."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

USC can be a juggernaut. The strongest of the 1-loss teams. If they don't have an off day, then they will be nobody's sacrificial lamb.
I'm really surprised at where Miami is. I haven't been following the games the last couple of weeks and all of the sudden, they have two losses.
I guess that's why we actually play the games.

And they are looking bad at Syracuse today.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Mississippi State really is a bad team. They are making Tennessee's suspect offense look awesome today."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic.
