I think we do better when you think negatively, not that I am being superstitious or anything.

When do we know what bowl we get? 7?

College football is such a joke. If NIU gets in, it further proves it. Hoops is where its at. end rant

It could come out early and it probably will but the official selection show is on at 8:30 tonight. BCS selection show is at 7:30 so that will give us an idea depending on NIU/OU.

once the coaches and harris polls are released most will have a decent idea but the actuall announcement likely won't be until the bowl selection show

The whole bowl thing is so stupid. Yes, I am excited see my team play again, but only one game out of the whole thing means something. Next year, two. Idiotic postseason to my favorite sport.

Completely agree. I love college football, but their post-season is a complete joke. Always has been, and probably always will be.
