if Nebraska wins? Or would it be the Indy?
If you believe all the hear-say around this place, Nebraska winning would send us to the Insight.
So then it would be the Indy? I guess I'm wondering what would happen to UT if they got beat. Would NU and UT both be in BCS bowls and how would B12 bowl rank be affected?Quote:

Meaning we'd go to the Indy?Quote:

Got it, thanks guys.

I think it would be more likely that Cincy would jump TCU into the national title. They made it pretty clear in 2006 that they weren't going to put two teams from the same conference in. Also, I can't see them putting a team from a non-qualifying conference in the title game. Even though TCU is ranked higher than Cincy right now, I think a convincing win over Pitt would put Cincy ahead of TCU. I think that top to bottom, the Big East is tougher than the Mountain West (Syracuse and Louisville >>> UNLV, SDSU, New Mexico, C-State, Wyoming).Quote:

Good point, I forgot about Cincy and their title game.Quote:

I COULD see the intrigue of the stroyline in the Independence Bowl versus Auburn for ISU, but would that trump the money-side of the story (Aggies cuying up all the tickets and filling the stadium)?
I think ISU will fall below TAMU in bowl picking...
That is the illogic displayed on these subjects. Most people think that the Indy will definitely pick A&M before ISU, but then try to argue that the Insight would pick ISU over A&M. Makes no sense unless Iowa is going to Fiesta and Insight thinks ISU would draw better than A&M. Either way, we should just be happy for the MU comeback that locks us in somewhere, otherwise the speculation would be exponentially higher -- and much more stressful.Quote:
