What if bowls were based on common sense and rankings? What would your bowl matchups look like? Based on the Final BCS rankings.

1 ND vs 2 Bama BCS Title
3 Florida vs 4 Oregon Sugar
5 KSU vs 7 UGA Rose
6 Stanford vs 8 LSU Orange
9 TAMU Vs South Carolina 10 Fiesta

This scenario would generate a hell of a lot more ticket revenue and the tv ratings would be great.
What would your matchups be?

Cotton Bowl tickets are expensive and selling well.
I think you can donate cans of food to get chick fil a bowl tickets.

I think the bowls are fine the way they are, teams should be rewarded for winning their conferences, not riding the coat tails of other conference members up the BCS rankings.

Also it is nice to see other teams like NIU recognized for outstanding years and justly rewarded for bowls they have earned.

If you are not happy with the bowl your team earned, your team should perform better during the season.

Agreed. Those are much, much better matchups.

While this it true the rankings are what they are. These matchups would make an awesome bowl season.

Way to focus on the actual content of the OP, asshat.

Hope y'all suck less than your last few visits to Jerry World.

I'm fine with that.

So we agree that Arkansas had no business playing in the Sugar Bowl on NYD 2011.

it would be excellent to watch and attend. I think it might lead to more split titles under the current format.

You'd put 3 SEC teams in the BCS but not have UGA? Why?

Technically, UGA should be in before LSU. But, whatever.

Fun fact: UGA and OU have never played each other.

A UGA/OU Sugar Bowl would sell out super fast.
