BCS-- GRRRR, don't EVEN get me started.
USC and Iowa deserve the at-large bids, PERIOD. SO USC doesn't travel well enough for Miami's Orange Bowl cause we've got good weather and an ocean of our own. Give us the Rose Bowl against WSU and Iowa the Orange Bowl then, issue solved, The Hawkeyes still get a great winter vacation, and we get to kick WSU's butt like we should have the first time around. Sheesh.
Top 8 teams should get the BCS bids, period. In a playoff system.
Damn, I'd really LOVE to see USC and Miami play each other.  Oh well.
BOY it felt good to kick Notre Dame's butt up and down the field at the Coliseum. Especiially since mr amycat and all his friends bet on ND (was 11 pt spread in favor of USC)...lol That'll teach them to bet against my Trojans!

I hope Jason Gesser's ankle still hurts so UCLA can beat Wazzou this weekend and simplify this BCS crap...

Either way, hopefully USC doesn't get screwed over - they've had a hell of a year.

Assuming Washington State beats UCLA this weekend and gets the Rose Bowl by virture of head to head tiebreaker for PAc 10 title--
as I understand it, if Iowa did get and accept an Orange Bowl biid, the Rose Bowl could then offer it to USC, which would set up a great PAc 10 title game, which USC would win, of course.

Don't bet on a Pac 10 v. Pac 10 Rose Bowl.
Assuming Miami, Georgia, OU and WSU WIN this weekend....
We already know that USC is #4 in the BCS, thus guaranteeing them a BCS Bowl - the Orange just might take Iowa snubbing #10 Notre Dame. Leaving The Rose Bowl (WSU already playing in it as Pac 10 champ) with the following teams to choose from:
Big 12 winner (OU)
ACC winner (FSU)
SEC Winner (Georgia)
USC (at-large)
The Rose Bowl would MOST LIKELY choose OKlahoma for the Rose Bowl so it wouldn't have to have a Pac 10 vs Pac 10 matchup. Then Georgia would meet USC in the Sugar Bowl.

I am just praying Miami losses and Georgia wins so they can play for the National championship. If not USC might not be that bad of a team to play.

Iowa isn't FOR SURE getting the second at-large bid. Notre Dame is still BCS bowl eligible (they have to be in the top 12)
The Orange Bowl wanted ND up until USC kicked their asses - they might still want them. If the Orange Bowl DOES select ND - IOWA is screwed and will be playing in the credit card bowl (capital one citrus)
And the country will have A LOT of pissed off IOWA and Big 10 fans.
I'm cheering HARDCORE for a WSU loss this weekend (so Iowa can play USC in the Rose Bowl)

 Iowa,
I think Orange would invite Iowa over ND thanks to USC. The Orange Bowl wants a sold out game, a team that travels well, which is why it professed a preference for ND over USC. (I think everyone assuming Iowa in Rose bowl) But Iowa travels well too. USC travels well, better than most teams, but not w same impact as ND or Iowa fans who are eager to flee winter.
I think, or, rather, from everything I heard and read, in the USC- Iowa-ND at large situation w only 2 teams getting bid, no one mentioned Iowa getting screwed. It was a USC/ND thing, w USC being the more likely.
I'd be one pissed off fan if ND got a bid over Iowa. ND does not deserve one, Iowa does.
I am sooo rooting for a Washington State loss, so I can go to Rose bowl on New Years Day! Am also rooting for a Miami and UGA loss too. lol
Fight on for ol' SC!!!

today three nebraska coaches were let go. Nelson barnes, the defensive end coach, george darlington, the secondary coach, and craig bohl, the defensive coordinator. frank solich already said hes going to look for an offensive coordinator as well, and he said hes looking for potential coaches inside and outside of the system.

this whole BCS garbage needs some tweeking. If your team is not in the Top 10 and youre a conference champ - too bad so sad no automatic bid for you! A team that deserves it should get it.

Ok, see...
ZetaAce, don't get me started on Va Tech! Michael who? Yeah, that's what us Seminoles were asking ourselves in the National Championship...
IowaHawkeye...okay, now I REALLY hope we play Iowa. I hope we play in Miami too, so I can go to the game.
Y'all are asking for it!!

Heard today, ROSE BOWL would prefer Iowa over other team. They REALLY want to preserve the Pac 10 - Big 10 tradition of the Rose Bowl, and are quite snooty (and quite right) in believing its the most venerable of all Bowl games.

Thats great for the rose bowl to want Iowa but nothing is final. In my opinion, its down to Notre Dame or Iowa for the last bowl slot. As much as I hate Notre Dame, they might get it due to the Irish's popularity. The big ten champ is going to the fiesta, so a #2 big ten team might not be appealing to fans. That will teach the big ten to get a title game going.
