BCS Bowls announced

If only they could have swung a Wake Forest-Boise St. matchup... then they'd have ratings gold!

Louisville gets $14m and an Orange Bowl win. Nice.

Big Blue got snubbed :(

big blue should be playing for the national championship not fla. that is a joke, they are going to get BLOWN OUT BIG TIME. it would be like sending texas or arkansas or notre dame to play OSU. After OSU/Michigan, there is a huge drop-off in college football. big blue will destroy usc and OSU will kill fla. bad job by the bcs, bad job all around.

not crying at all, i like rutgers not big blue. i am an objective sports fan though and can clearly see that michigan is the second best team in the nation. i also see the two bowls as being blow outs. we will see...

The BCS blew this by putting a limit on how many representatives a conference can field. Wisconsin deserves to be there more than any of those two loss teams do. Isn't the BCS about pitting the best teams against each other? The Badgers are ranked fifth in the Coaches' Poll and get the Capital One Bowl? WTF is that?

It's really too bad Michigan didn't have a fair shot to make the championship game...Oh wait, they did. And they lost.

The only thing you can say about Michigan is that they lost to a higher ranked team than Florida did. We will never know if they could have made it through a tougher schedule because they didn't play one. Please don't throw in Notre Dame being a tough opponent, they were middle of the road with a slack schedule. Florida had the toughest schedule in the nation this year. That's a given. So what counts more, the one loss to a lesser ranked (but still top ten) opponent, or multiple wins against tougher teams? Everyone was accepting USC as #2 even though they lost to an unranked team. Michigan fans are just upset that they were jumped in the polls but the numbers show that the strength of schedule with multiple wins makes Florida #2.

Good thing there's no playoff system in place, or else we might end up seeing a Ohio State- Michigan rematch!!!

Of course, they'd meet in the first round of playoffs, beat each other up while Boise St would win it all over (ah, let's say... Wake Forest!)

All bitchers need to quit their bitching; The System worked!!!

If you think Michigan could jump from #3 to #1 without Ohio State losing, I guess you must be a BCS voter! All kidding aside, no matter how you slice it, if OSU beats Florida, they are #1, no matter how close the game was. 13-0 will always trump 12-1, especially when the 13-0 team beat the 12-1 team (and it shouldn't even have been that close). I will let the losers argue over #2. And by the way, those of you thinking that the Buckeyes will overlook Florida are either idiots or you don't know Jim Tressel. Who the hell is there to beyond Florida to?

Everyone is still avoiding the fact that Michigan played a weaker schedule than Florida. It's hard for me to accept Michigan as #2 when they didin't prove it through their schedule. The only thing they did was lose to the #1 team in the nation. Had they played a tougher schedule they might have lost more than one game. By saying they are the definite #2 there is no substance to back it up.

LSU versus Notre Dame. Now there are two teams that don't deserve a BCS Bowl.

At the end of the year, Michigan will once again be #2...after FLORIDA GETS BLOWN OUT!!!!

Friskyboy- what are the odds in vegas for OSU-FLA? FLA SUCKS.

and manhandle the bcs doesn't work, who are you kidding? i mean either you don't understand college football (like baseball) or you are just spouting off AGAIN. you are telling me notre dame deserves a bcs bowl? haha. good one. you are telling me that FLA can even play with OSU? haha. good one. you are telling me that rutgers ranked 16th should be playing in the wtf is it called....the texas bowl? haha. good one. you are telling me that the bcs worked? where? how? AGAIN GO TO A PLAYOFF SYSTEM AND ALL OF THIS NONSENSE GOES AWAY. what says you friskykid or half manwags?

What about all thoses Michigan fans who said Blue was gonna blow out USC???? Hope you had enough turkey for the Hoildays! Cause its time to eat crowe!!
