Let's Go Bowling!

Minnesota's going to the Insight Bowl in Arizona to play Kansas.

Iowa's going to Florida to play South Carolina in the Outback Bowl.


Oklahoma and Florida duke it out for the title.

Penn State and USC in the Rose Bowl, Cincy and VaTech in the Orange Bowl, 'Bama and Utah in the Sugar Bowl and Texas and Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl.

Here's the best of the rest.

The BCS isn't as much of a train wreck as it could have been, but it still could be better. If I was a Bosie State fan, I'd be pissed off. If I was a Ball State fan, I too would be pissed. Not because people may not have considered them serious contenders (and indeed, they might not have been) but because they were denied a chance to even prove that they could be contenders. Therein lies the most maddening part of the BCS: it's not that it doesn't work, because it does, after a fashion- but it puts the determinations of the match-ups into the hands of polls and computers- and doesn't even let teams prove themselves on the field. Which is what the point of the game should be.
