The BCS Selection show will be on FOX at 8 PM.

ESPN is also having a show to reveal the selections and analyze all of this year's bowl games from 8-11 PM.

Once the official matchups are announced, we can all discuss them/complain here.

Citi BCS National Championship Game - Pasadena, CA - Rose Bowl

Alabama (13-0) vs. Texas (13-0)

Rose Bowl Game Presented by Citi - Pasadena, CA - Rose Bowl

Ohio State (10-2) vs. Oregon (10-2)

I hope they open with him crying. It'd make me feel great.

Yeah, I'm kinda sick of all the Tebow stuff. Let's try to keep this topic on the games. Go bash Tebow somewhere else.

No thanks. I'll bash Tebow when I want.

DaBrowns,

Come on man. I started the thread to talk about the BCS games, not Tebow. There's no reason to make this a bigger deal than it has to be.

I'm here to talk about the BCS.

You guys don't have to provoke me to piss you off more, however. Don't be upset if you can't handle me disliking a player.

Why talk about the Cotton Bowl on the BCS Show?

I guess because it's one of the games on FOX.

Because the Cotton Bowl is making a push to become a BCS bowl by 2012, or 2013. Not that it matters right now as it's still a Tier 2 bowl.

I stand corrected about my post in the other thread about not having two mid-majors playing each other.

Of course they would have TCU and BSU play each other. I hate seeing this as I was hoping they each would get to play against the big boys. I think this will be another great game just like last year.

I wanted to see them each play a team from a BCS conference. Don't really like this matchup, but I guess it's cool to have a battle of undefeateds.

Looks like the Fiesta had to fall on the grenade and take a huge ratings hit to protect the BCS conferences from having to face the mid majors. Now neither Boise or TCU will prove much of anything with their great seasons.
