Are Florida fans excited about possibly facing Louisville or Kent State?

With a Kent State win and a UCLA loss, UCLA who was 16 in the BCS will fall, and Kent State will slip into the auto-bid 16 spot. So this means, Oregon is top 4 and automatically in. They will face the Big 12 Champion. It will be up to whichever bowl gets first selection to pick Louisville. Not sure if it is Sugar or Orange that gets to pick first this year, but either way it will be a terrible match-up. Kind of reminds me of 2009 when Florida faced might Cincinnati who really thought they stood a chance.

Doesn't remind me of this at all. UF had to fight to the finish with Bowling Green and ULL this year. UF is obviously a really good team, but I would not count on them blowing the doors off of either of these teams.

If Northern Illinois doesn't win this bowl season will have nothing but awful BCS games. It will be like 2007 when there were no good games.

I'm sure they are just beside themselves with excitement.

You do realize Kent State's only loss is a 30+ point defeat to KENTUCKY right?

and ULL lost to North Texas, and Arky State. Bowling green lost to Toledo, Va. Tech, and Kent State...what is your point?

Florida is good but your offense would struggle against both of those teams IMO.

I disagree. Our offense would be fine against both those teams. Our defense will keep us in any game and we have the ability to wear teams like that down in the 2nd half.

No chance at Oregon. Oregon will play either Oklahoma or Kansas State (depending on Texas vs Kansas State). Florida will face either: Louisville, Kent State, Oklahoma, or Kansas State.

I do think if Texas wins the voters make sure Kent State is behind them and Kent State will be left out.

I know there really isn't a shot at UO, but I wish there was. I would like to play OU or KSU.

I would be excited to see Kansas State vs Florida. I am really hoping for a Texas win.

We play to the level of our opponent, so who knows how the game will turn out.
I'm excited we're in a BCS game, but I'm not excited about the opponent. I wonder how many people will go to New Orleans. These 2 would usually be the "rent-a-win" portion of our schedule.

Want UF vs OU so it will show the Irish how overrated that win was when Florida blanks them 31-0

UF plays to its level of competition. Muschamp said that right after the FSU win.

Only explanation for the lethargic games against BG, ULL, Jacksonville State, and Missouri.

I guarantee you though, Muschamp will have this team fired up whoever they play against in the Sugar Bowl, and wanting to prove that they were worthy of a spot in the BCSCG.
