due to the order of selection there really is zero chance of this.


BCS – Kansas St. vs. Notre Dame
Fiesta – Oregon vs. Oklahoma
Sugar – Georgia vs. Texas A&M
Orange – Florida St. vs. Louisville
Rose – UCLA vs. Wisconsin

Glad you liked that, they are and will always be FSucks and Georgia is UG, why do they deserve an extra letter?

fair enough, if USC or UCLA beats Oregon and everything else stays the same you are right...it could happen -- though I bet A&M is selected ahead of Oklahoma in that scenario but it's at least possible

No, if the Sugar promises to take them, they'll turn down the Fiesta

yeah and the Fiesta probably doesn't want them. They have been a lot and the Big 12 ties to the Fiesta are ending so it's not like they are all chummy chummy and want to select a Big 12 team.

How hard a ticket would Nebraska - Notre Dame Rose Bowl be?

I think the Fiesta would choose A&M (or an SEC #2) before they choose Oregon.

well they'd have 2 picks in a row so they get whatever matchup they want. If Oregon, SEC#2, Oklahoma are all available, I'm almost sure they'd match up Oregon and SEC#2.

They could have both if Oklahoma works a deal with the Sugar Bowl to play the SEC champ:

BCS: Kansas St. vs. Notre Dame
Fiesta: A&M/Alabama/LSU vs. Oregon
Sugar: Georgia/Bama vs. Oklahoma
Orange: FSU vs. Louisville/Rutgers
Rose: UCLA/USC vs. Wisconsin/Nebraska

Fiesta is not at all tied into taking Oklahoma. There doesn't need to be a deal.

ND will make a BCS bowl even if they get beat by USC.

and unless you lose to OM and Bama loses to Auburn, I'm failing to see how A&M could get to the Sugar. The Sugar is contractually required to take whoever wins the SECCG

There's that. I was just saying the Sugar Bowl wouldn't take two SEC teams.
Yeah, if Oklahoma works it so they don't play in the Fiesta, that would really open the door for some interesting matchups. I like it.

Was responding to someone that said unless they get beat by USC.

Was under the assumption that he thought if they get beat by USC they aren't going to a BCS bowl.

They will be the first selected at large team
