http://www.sportsline.com/collegefootball/bowls/predictions Is there any other team that has a shot at the Sugar other than Hawaii? I want to win the SEC, but I would rather play Illinois or Michigan in the Cap One.
As it's been pointed out many times, Sugar Bowl gets the last pick of the BCS bowls and will have Hawaii shoved down their throats whether they like it or not (assuming Hawaii will indeed move to 12). The only way they get knocked out of contention if they move up is if they choke against Washington next week.
Nope. Hawaii gets the automatic BCS bowl bid by virtue of finishing in the top 15 of the BCS standings. And much like the Fiesta Bowl last season, since the Sugar is hosting the title game, the Sugar gets the last at-large pick: Hawaii. Doesn't sound like a great matchup, but the saving grace is at least Hawaii will be a top 10 team. Sorry...just looking for a "silver lining". Heck, unless we re-learn how to play a COMPLETE game, we won't win the SECCG to get to a Sugar Bowl!
