So who are the BCS teams now?

ACC: Clemson
Big East: West Virginia
Big Ten: Wisconsin
Big 12: Oklahoma State
Pac-12: Oregon
SEC: LSU

At-larges: Alabama, Stanford, _______, ________

Let's assume OSU doesn't jump 'Bama (God I hope I'm wrong).

Rose: Oregon vs. Wisconsin
Fiesta: Oklahoma State vs. ________
Orange: West Virginia vs. Clemson
Sugar: ________ vs. _________
Nat'l championship: LSU vs. Alabama

I think the Sugar would get first pick of the at-larges since they are losing their conference (SEC) to the title game. But I'm not sure.

YOu are correct Sugar gets first pick. I also believe that the Big east champ is not locked into the Orange bowl.
 
Out for the night...

My best call as of now is UNC in the Military bowl. My top pick as of now.

I think Stanford plays Okla St in Fiesta.

Sugar will have choice of
-Michigan (maybe)
-Va Tech
-K-State
-maybe locked in with TCU if TCU gets in top 16
-potentially could choose Houston or Boise but won't
 
Here's the thing Stanford has been slotted into the Fiesta because most assume that the Sugar takes Michigan to draw if they are in the top 14. If they aren't in the top 14 I got a feeling the Sugar takes Stanford with their first pick.

I am pretty sure they are locked in on a rotating schedule between Fiesta, Orange, and Sugar, and this year is Orange for them. If I remember right, the Rose and Orange Bowls are set as of now. Correct me if I'm wrong
 
70 teams go to a bowl.

Today, 72 teams are eligible.

ACC- All in or out.

Big XII- All in or out.

B1G- All in or out.

Big East-
-Pitt 5-6, Cuse left. IN
-Cuse 5-6, Pitt left. OUT
-UConn 5-6, Cincy left. OUT
-South Florida, 5-7, WV left. OUT

Independents- All already in or out.

Pac 12- UCLA- I believe they petitioned the NCAA and will be in a bowl with 6-7 record (assuming they lose to Oregon). IN

C-USA-
All in or out.

MWC- All in or out.

MAC-
-All either in or out.

SEC-
All in or out.

Sun Belt- All already in or out.

WAC-
-Hawaii 6-6. Play 13 games. Must win last game vs BYU. OUT

FINAL COUNT

72 teams eligible for 70 spots. Two will be knocked out


My predictions:
BCS NC: LSU vs. Okie St
Fiesta: Michigan vs. KSU
Rose: Oregon vs. Wisky
Sugar: Bama vs. Stanford
Orange: Clemson vs. WV

Bad part about the D.C. bowl is that it's played at RFK Stadium and that place is a dump now.

No the Big East doesn't have a bowl lock.

The picks go based on Bama being number 2. Sugar, Fiesta, Sugar, Orange.
The picks go based on OSU as number 2 Sugar, Fiesta, Sugar, Fiesta, Orange

At least what I'm hoping for. I think Baylor passes Michigan, putting Mich at #17. I think Mich St stays ahead of them since it was close and MSU beat Mich head to head. I think Mich only passes Houston and Georgia, putting them at #15.

Hawaii lost 41-20, they are OUT.

This link (yes I know it is Wikipedia) says that the Big East BCS bid is rotating and this year it is Orange. I would buy it because last year we seemed to know for some reason that the Big East would be playing Oklahoma in the Fiesta.

Your saying that Southern Miss and TCU don't get into top 16 correct?

If you look at the BCS standings, who are they going to jump?
NCAA College Football BCS Standings Week 14 - ESPN
I don't think they jump anyone who lost today (Georgia, Clemson, Houston, Michigan St.) The gap is too big. If they jump anyone it would be Houston- but how far will they drop, and maybe Georgia. I don't think MSU drops that far since the game was so close.
 
I just have a feeling that you going to see Georgia and Oklahoma drop a bunch because of the way they lost in blowout fashion. I don't think Southern Miss can get to 16 but depending on where houston falls because they were blown out at home I could see Michigan getting to 14 and TCU getting to 16.

I hope im wrong for ISU's sake
