| and I think that could be a good thing. Looking at some of the projected bowl matchups, the conference will likely be an underdog in nearly every game. Having teams like Iowa and Purdue serving as fodder for Big 12 teams probably doesn't serve much purpose. Currently, there are only 4 bowl eligible teams from the conference. I don't know how it works economically, but I say the fewer the better. | |

Good point, but I'm not sure how excited the teams going to the #7 and #8 bowl games are. I just hate the idea of the conference pulling a 1-7 in bowl games, or something similar. | |

| The conference doesn't deserve it this year. I think this will be a pretty mediocre year for CFB in general. The Heisman front runners are weak IMO. BAMA and Oregon are the only two real contenders for the NC. I guess we'll have to see how things play out the rest of the way but I just do OT think this was one of the best years in general. | |

http://espn.go.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/64230/big-ten-bowl-projections-week-11-3 The talking heads at ESPN show us playing Fla. The talking heads at CBS show us playing Ga. I kind of don't buy the CBS pick. That would be a possibility IF Ga doesn't play in the SEC championship game. The loser of that game always goes to the Sugar Bowl, with last year being the exception. Go Blue!!! | |

| Really does it matter, as bad as this conference is how many interesting game are there gonna be. The really good teams will be pitted against better teams and get their heads handed to em. I mean How good are Nebraska or michigan facing a PAC12 champ, My thoughts are 1. Michigan 2. Nebraska 3. Wisconsin 4. Northwestern. are really all that deserve to go. after that Maybe MSU, buit they are failing big. _________________ "HAIL HAIL MICHIGAN" Wanted John Harbaugh but I'll settle for JIM WITH AN ENTHUSIASM UNKNOWN TO MANKIND GOOO BLUE The Curse of Rich Rod

| Wow, it looks bad. Heck I can't even get the name right on the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl. I still say that would be the ideal game for sparty to go to IF they make a bowl. Think about it, their fans could travel AND the game could double as recruitment for sparty graduates as pizza delivery drivers. It's a win-win...
