    Rose Bowl : #3 Notre Dame vs #13 Nebraska
    Fiesta Bowl : #5 LSU vs #8 Clemson
    Sugar Bowl : #4 Alabama vs #7 Oklahoma
    Orange bowl: #6 Florida State vs #14 Louisville
    BCS Natinal Championship Game: #2 K-State vs #1 Oregon

    fell free to give your opinion ...winners are in bold

    If the teams you predict are correct, look for Oklahoma to go to the Fiesta and Clemson to the Sugar.

    Oklahoma will most assuredly go to the Fiesta bowl if they win out.

    LSU getting in is a stretch.

    Florida needs to lose to FSU and probably Bama would need to beat Georgia, not sure they would take a 2 loss LSU over a 2 loss Bama who played in the SEC CG.

    CBSsports has us in the Fiesta vs. Chokelahoma. But then again things can change in the next few weeks. If Bama wins the SECC, and noone in the Top 3 lose, Bama will be in the Sugar.

    No way would Fiesta not choose ND and people said they have the first choice.

    I was at TCU/KSU last night, KSU looked like anything but a team that could play for a NC ESPECIALLY with the large number of seniors playing a bunch of teenagers from TCU (their roster has been slaughtered this year). Texas is playing as well as they have all year and I think that will be a very good game at KSU..............for that matter, Baylor in Waco is not a sure thing either. There are no Auburns or UK's in the Big 12 this year.

    4,5,6,7,8,9 all SEC teams right now, to be honest this is what I thought the SEC would look like every year, a bunch of solid teams that beat the hell out of each other, and get left out of the title game.

    As did I come to think of it. I would have laughed uncontrollably if you had said 6 straight.

    ESPN Ed Aschoff sec bowl predictions


    Thanks to the new kids on the SEC block, the Discover BCS National Championship Game will likely be the first BCS title game to feature two non-SEC teams since 2005. Alabama's 29-24 loss to Texas A&M did more than just show that the Aggies are for real in this league. It also showed that the rest of the country might not have to hear from the big, bad SEC at season's end.

    SEC enthusiasts had to have a bittersweet feeling inside when they saw Texas A&M possibly ruin things for the conference. The league was so nice to bring the Aggies in, and this is how they repay it? Still, what a game and what a team Kevin Sumlin has over in College Station. This team should be good for quit some time.

    But the SEC won't get shut out of the BCS. It'll likely still send two teams to BCS bowls, which would be two pretty big wins for the conference.

    Also, the SEC might not fill its 10 bowl spots this year. While the SEC should get two in the BCS to give the conference 10 bowl teams, it might not get 11 eligible teams, which means there wouldn't be an SEC representative in the Autocare Independence Bowl.

    Ole Miss still has to win one more, meaning the Rebels will have to beat either LSU or Mississippi State. This team has come too far not to get one last win, right? And Tennessee has to win out. That means beating Vanderbilt and Kentucky. Vandy is on the road, while Kentucky is at home. Right now, it just doesn't look like the Vols can get two more wins this year.

    Making projections on the bowls now is even more of a careless shot in the dark after Saturday, but we're willing to give it our best shot:
    Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, Jan. 3: Texas A&M
    Allstate Sugar Bowl, Jan. 2: Alabama
    Capital One Bowl, Jan. 1: Georgia
    AT&T Cotton Bowl, Jan. 4: LSU
    Outback Bowl, Jan. 1: Florida
    Chick-fil-A Bowl, Dec. 31: South Carolina
    Taxslayer.com Gator Bowl, Jan. 1: Mississippi State
    Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl, Dec. 31: Vanderbilt
    AutoZone Liberty Bowl, Dec. 31: Ole Miss
    BBVA Compass Bowl, Jan. 5: Missouri

    FYI, opened 20 pt favorites vs ole miss

    Vandi is favored by 3 over Tennessee. Bye Dooley.
