I wonder how this ends for Iowa and Penn State as to where they go.

USC in the Emerald bowl, that will look a little weird.

Northwestern in the Outback means that two Big Ten teams are in the BCS, but other than that doesn't tell us anything.

Glad to see BGSU get a bowl game so Freddie Barnes gets a chance to break the NCAA record of most receptions.

I think the Arkansas-ECU game will be a good one

I'm happy that Bowling Green has a Bowl Game for Freddie. It's a little ironic that the opponent is Idaho. A few summers ago my wife and I took a trip to Lewiston, Idaho to be re-united with my cousin Pam who I had gone to high school with on the West Coast and had not seen in over 40 years. BG has played Boise State (with not very much success) early in the last few seasons and now the Falcons will end their season against the Vandals. I can't wait to tell my Idaho family about it, although the entire Idaho family are all California natives.

I think Auburn will hang for a while.

I'll go to the local game to watch the Tar Heels win.

Bowling Green vs. Idaho has to be the worst bowl match-up in history.

Don't see the MAC going 0-5 again. They have some winnable games this year.

Come on, Mulva, this BG-Idaho game has great potential. It can be billed as the battle between the Potato kings and the Tomato Kings. I do hope though, that there aren't too many shots panning the crowd. It will look like the turnout for a 97 year old homeless man's funeral. But hey....football is football..right? As long as the beer is cold, what's the difference?:D
