My only prediction is that a Big 10 team will play in Citi and lose really, really badly.

You wouldn't know this from watching ESPN, but the team with the most lopsided loss in the BCS, and the team with the longest losing streak in the BCS, is....

Oklahoma

But they're a Big XII team, so ESPN has to act as if they walk upon water.

The majority of Miami’s fans are ghetto dwellers.

Why would any bowl want to invite Miami, a team that can’t half fill it’s stadium for homecoming?

Maybe the baby mommas of the players will be out on parole in time for the bowl game? (Hey, I'm kidding.....)

Did you see them Saturday night? 3 points... how the mighty have fallen and yes I agree with you - I was wondering how the BCS could somehow get OU back up into the top 10 so they could get another BCS bid this year.

Another thing we can thank the United States Navy for - keeping ND out of the BCS.

Ditto!!!!! Thank you!

Of the top three...I think that Texas is most likely to lose, in the Big 12 championship game..they've been looking ahead to the national championship game for months, and they play nobody for the rest of the year..

If that happens, then TCU could sneak into the #2 spot..

Here's a more likely, and more confusing scenario. Texas wins the Big 12, but in the SEC championship, Gators and Tide play a barn-burner...maybe a 6-3, of a 42-39 final..possibly in O/T. Then do you bring them back for a rematch?

Well my beloved Northwestern Wildcats sure threw a monkey wrench into that planning last Saturday.

I hate to break this to Mr. Schlabach, but concerning his picks for the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl? Iowa is a Big Ten school, Iowa State is not.

Miami’s biggest mistake was deciding to join a basketball conference. When they were independent, they could schedule whoever they wanted. Now with the ACC, nobody respects them as a football conference. The ACC has a crummy TV deal that limits their exposure on national television. Yes they can still get recruits from the “State of Miami”, but these days you have to recruit nationwide.

Of course, the true national championship game this year is the SEC playoff.
