The Bowl Selections Are In...

...and it looks like we're headed to Shreveport to face Oklahoma State.  Looking at the bowl selections, some intriguing matchups jumped out at me:

Title Game: tOSU vs Florida
Thankfully the human voters threw their weight behind Florida to avoid a rematch. I also have two good friends who are Florida grads, so good on them and all.

Sugar Bowl:  LSU vs Notre Dame
I have a hard time believing that the Irish are going to snap that bowl losing streak they're riding.

Capital One:  Arkansas vs Wisconsin
The biggest screw over the BCS produced this season has to be Wisconsin.  The Badgers are 11-1 with the 1 being a fight to the finish with Michigan.  I suppose it's a good thing that a conference can only have two teams in the BCS bowls, but you gotta feel for the Badgers.

MPC Computers: Nevada vs Miami
The 'Canes on the smurf turf.  Who'd a thunk it?

Emerald:  Florida State vs UCLA
Remember the whole "Offense, meet Defense" schtick that kept popping up whenever last year's Bama vs Texas Tech Cotton Bowl came up?  Yeah.

PapaJohns.com:  ECU vs USF
It's in Birmingham, I'm going, whatever.

Las Vegas:  BYU vs Oregon
The over/under on this one should be around 400.

I was amused to discover an Odor Complaint Form (PDF) on the front page of Shreveport's official site. More info on Shreveport soon.
