re: So, which bowl game are we going to?

Further, when two bowls lose host teams, the bowl losing the No. 1 team may not select a replacement team from the same conference as the No. 2 team, unless the bowl losing the No. 2 team consents.

So wait, if FSU vs AU, the Orange Bowl could potentially not be allowed to pick Bama? Then I guess they'd pick tOSU and the Sugar would pick Bama? That seems very likely.

Then, if tOSU plays FSU, if the Orange somehow didn't select Alabama, would the Rose Bowl?
