I guess I should've added that these aren't the official match-ups, just my projections.

The IRISH will so kick Florida's butt if they end up playing them. Michigan for sure over LSU. USC in an upset over Ohio State. The other ones --Fart who cares(Georgia Tech and Rutgers--who the heck would even watch it?)

Notre Dame is quite easily the most overrated team in college football.

Im a huge Notre Dame fan...and I so agree. We were embarassingly bad against USC. And now Darius Walker's injured as well. All I know is, any team that comes out of the SEC with only one loss scares the crap out of me. I think Florida will rape my poor Irish. I hope Weiss is wearin his recruitin shoes, time to bring in some D!

Well, that would represent Notre Dame's first impressive win of the season.

No way OSU losses. They never lose in the desert and have rolled everyone this year ... third win against a #2 this year.

I agree. OSU's an a whole other level this year. No way anyone beats them.

And just to add to the comment you were responding to, on who would want to watch Georgia Tech vs. Rutgers. If you want to watch by far the best receiver in the nation, Calvin Johnson of GT, then take a look. The guy is unreal. He will be a Top 5 NFL pick in April.

Not to mention the best FB in the nation in Brian Leonard of Rutgers. This game is still a pipe dream, they both have to win this weekend for this to happen.

Color me biased, but I think the only teams ND could have a chance to beat in that list of 10 are Rutgers, Boise State, and Georgia Tech.

I'd like to see a Michigan/Florida game in there ... USC/Ohio State is almost a given.

The Irish dont even deserve a BCS game...look at their schedule....exactly what did they do to earn a spot among the top 8 teams in the country??

They are a joke who have been over-hyped by US media forever....enough of the average team in South Bend already.

If you think that ND is the most overrated team in college football and that Florida would rape them you must not have seen much of Florida this year. They needed three blocked kicks to beat powerhouse South Carolina, barely beat Vanderbilt and struggled against a very mediocore Florida State. They also played a division 1AA powerhouse as well. I would take ND over Florida and probably every BCS team except the ACC champ.

Rose Bowl: LSU vs. Michigan - Michigan wins

Fiesta Bowl: Oklahoma vs. Boise State - Oklahoma wins, barely

Orange Bowl: Georgia Tech vs. Louisville - Louisville wins

Sugar Bowl: Arkansas vs. Notre Dame - Notre Dame wins

BCS - Ohio State vs. USC - USC wins

Don't know why I had Florida in there I think Arkansas beats them this weekend.

Youd take ND to beat OSU, USC, and Michigan? The Buckeyes would light us up like a Christmas tree! And Florida also beat Tennessee, LSU and Georgia, and lost a close game to Auburn. Dont get me wrong, Im a huge ND fan. I just dont think they have it this year. That D is just not there(though I love and will miss Zbikowski, and Abiamari. And Ndukwe's just a beast in that secondary). I have watched them eke out victories against teams like UCLA and Michigan St. And as great as those games were to watch, for a team ranked as high as we were, we shouldve been spanking them. After that USC drubbing last weekend, Ive lost all confidence.

As I said before, dont get me wrong, I love the Irish. But if you think we'd beat OSU youre dreaming.

Whoops worded that wrong I meant I would take every BCS team except the ACC Champ to beat Florida. I think the only teams ND would beat in the BCS is Florida, the Big East Champ and the ACC Champ.

I just want to know the other team thats going to be playing at the game that I'll be at.

Capital One Bowl Game

Right Now

Wisconsin is a lock, and it looks like it will either be LSU or Auburn for the other team.

LSU is basically a lock for the BCS and for the Rose Bowl. ( I have heard the Rose Bowl already offered them a spot and barring a USC loss and Florida making into the Championship game over Michigan they will be there).

I think it will be the loser of the Florida-Arkansas game that will go to the Capital One Bowl.

USC looks pretty soft today against UCLA, trailing by one and with UCLA threatening to score again. Even if they come back to win today, I'm not sure they're more deserving of Michigan for that championship bid.

It has been a great game so far(for non USC fans anyway!). I think the Trojans will lose this game, Booty, despite his best efforts cannot penetrate the Bruin defence.

It will be Michigan i do believe.
