Do we have enough teams to qualify for 8 spots. It looks like michigan will play Georgia, South Carolina, Texas am or Lsu.

I'm not sure Meatchicken could beat any of those teams.

Yes there are two Buckeyes in Ann arbor on this site!

A winless bowl season would not surprise me

It doesn't help that two of the best teams are ineligible. When everyone gets bumped up 2 bowls, they're going to be way overmatched.

I bet the Spartans will be able to beat the MAC school they are likely to play LOL.

Not so sure TTUN will get that spot. If Wisky dumps Brasky look for the Badgers in the Rose, and Nebraska will take the next highest spot.

With the assumption of a Notre Dame win, and Stanford winning the Pac-12 Championship Game rematch with UCLA and Nebraska beating Wisconsin, it would probably look something like this:

Rose Bowl: Nebraska (11-2) vs. Stanford (11-2)

Capital One Bowl: Michigan (8-4) vs. Georgia (11-2)

Outback Bowl: Northwestern (9-3) vs. Texas A&M (10-2)

Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl: Wisconsin (7-6) vs. Texas/TCU/Oklahoma State

Gator Bowl: Michigan State (6-6) vs. Mississippi State (9-3)

Meineke Car Care Bowl: Minnesota (6-6) vs. TCU/Texas Tech/West Virginia

Ticketcity Bowl: Purdue (6-6) vs. Texas Tech/West Virginia/Baylor

This B1G bowl season is going to be ugly, folks.

That's an 0-7 bowl year for the B1G right there. Hopefully Rutgers wins their bowl.

Put us in the Rose and PSU in between Nebraska and TSUN and it looks better.

I just hope the all the awfulness that is the rest the conference keeps it close enough that we can still be ranked top three or four heading into next season. Need that high pre-season ranking in the current system

Yikes.

As good as Nebraska is, I don't see them beating Stanford. That Kevin Hogan kid is pretty good. Northwestern has been in quite a few shootouts, but I can't see them holding a lead against A&M. and Minnesota/Purdue can be penciled in as losses already.

I can see Michigan, Wisky, and MSU with the only squads able to squeak the upsets. Now, if only OSU and PSU were bowl eligible...

BCS National Championship: Ohio State (12-0) vs. Notre Dame (12-0)
Rose Bowl: Nebraska (11-2) vs. Stanford (11-2)
Capital One Bowl: Michigan (8-4) vs. Georgia (11-2)
Outback Bowl: Penn State (8-4) vs. Texas A&M (10-2)
Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl: Northwestern (9-3) vs. Texas/TCU/Oklahoma State
Gator Bowl: Wisconsin (7-6) vs. Mississippi State (9-3)
Meineke Car Care Bowl: Michigan State (6-6) vs. TCU/Texas Tech/West Virginia
Ticketcity Bowl: Minnesota (6-6) or Purdue (6-6) vs. Texas Tech/West Virginia/Baylor

Looks a little more manageable now :)

Nebraska might be our best shot at winning a bowl game. Still not convinced that Mississippi State is any good, so we might be able to sneak one if we get matched up against them. I guess if you are going to win only one it might as well be the biggest one. I know I'll be pulling for them big time.

Oh. Dear. God. have the ambulance ready.

I could see us winning the rose bowl but the sec games are going to be quite ugly. I also could see possibly TSUN beating Georgia but only if everything goes perfectly and it rarely does for this conference in January, as long as we win the rose bowl though I will be satisfied.
