I hope Oregon doesn't get shafted. They only have one loss, and it came at the hands of the best team in the nation.

And they were leading at halftime.

Then again, I am one of those guys who wishes nothing good for conference competitors, so what the hell am I saying?

[MikefromOhio]

Sorry all, this is what I get for watching the NFL instead of ABC.

The selection show is on now :)

I believe Barney Frank may just attend his very first American football game.

If USC is effective with their running game against Texas, they win.
If they have problems running against Texas and have to do it on passes, it will be a contest.

Rose: USC - Texas

Hook em horns! It's time for Troy to fall.

Sugar: WVU - UGA

yawn

Orange: FSU-PSU

FSU getting in the BCS is a travesty, but that's how the cards fall. I have a soft spot for Paterno. He's the only voting corpse that votes Republican. Go Penn State!

Fiesta: OSU - ND

BRING IT ON!

The septuagenarian coaching bowl!

It’s a matchup of septuagenarians, with Paterno turning 79 later this month and Bowden now 76. Bowden has 359 wins, six more than Paterno — and both steered their teams to surprising comeback stories in 2005.

Bowden is 1-6 all-time against Paterno; he lost all six meetings as West Virginia’s coach in the early 1970s, and guided Florida State to a 24-17 victory over Penn State in the 1990 Blockbuster Bowl.

It’s probably no surprise that both coaches have sparkling records in bowl games. Bowden is 19-8-1 all-time in bowls, a winning percentage of .696 that is the best in Division I-A history. Paterno is 20-10-1 in bowl games, plus is the only coach to ever win the Rose, Sugar, Fiesta, Orange and Cotton bowls.

So it is as expected. ND-OSU could be the most entertaining of the BCS bowls.

[Hurricane Andrew]

Argh! I promised my parents weeks ago that I would pick up my sister at Philly Int'l Airport on Dec. 30th at 10:33PM. As fate would have it, my 'Canes play at 7:30 that night, in the best matchup of non BCS teams. I guess I'll be getting there a bit early and watching the game at a bar at the airport.

The Pac 10 received it's annual BullcS shafting so nothing changes. What a joke of a system. The final MSM Monopoly.

Without a Playoff it is only Corrupt Fantasy Football.

Go Oregon!!

[Diddle E. Squat]

The beauty of the Nat'l Champ game is that either way, liberals will have to root for a Bush's team.

[ken5050]

Morning Dude....I was "nuts" for picking UCLA and CU, buit to even have suggested that the Bowl committee would chose Oregon over ND is, well....like, WOW!!

[RabidBartender]

Kansas 42, Houston 13 (really 6 - that ball never crossed the goal line)

The Jayhawks hold the Cougars to 28 yards rushing (They averaged 178.8 yards a game this season). Kansas QB Jason Swanson throws for 308 yards and 4 touchdowns. RB Jon Cornish runs for 101 yards and racks up 43 more receiving.

So much for the Pac 10 fans on the board that claim the Big XII defensive numbers are overrated. Kansas looked great tonight.

Totals thus far:

Big XII (1-0)
Pac 10 (1-0)
Mid-American (1-0)
Independents (1-0) [Navy]
Conference USA (1-2)
Sun Belt (0-1)
Mountain West (0-2)

Mike, can you please add me to the ping list?
