Anyone planning to watch?

we are!

We are...but it's driving both of us crazy already! BAH! Come on Hawks!

I want to, but DH keeps turning on the cardinals/vikings pre game show on.

We are watching.  DH has cursed Nebraska yet again for last night's loss.  He was hoping the Frogs would get a shot at Bama.

The Florida/Cincinnati game is going to be good!  I think it's the Sugar bowl

OSULori

We're watching too. And just saw that my Bearcats are playing Florida in the Sugar Bowl-eek!  Though my H is convinced that UC is one of the few teams that can score the points needed to beat Florida, so who knows?

AND the Rose and Sugar Bowls are both on New Year's Day...be still my heart!    That could be really good, kinda good, or really really bad.

Thank you baby jesus. Hawkeyes are Orange Bowl bound.

The Cincy - Florida match-up should be a good one. But...

WVU - Florida State on New Year's Day. What a match-up! I am so excited for bowl season.

I'll be seeing all you Husker fans in the Holiday Bowl! Go Cats! If our schedule works out correctly we should make it to the game...hopefully we can change our flights for Christmas and it won't be too expensive.

Looks like there should be some great bowl games this year. Looking forward to bowl week.

We are watching...well, we are watching the one on ESPN. Until Saban came on, then we had to change the channel.

I'm excited to go to the Outback Bowl but I kinda wish we were playing someone other than Northwestern (no offense to any Wildcats). 

OSUWifey09

I would've been watching if we weren't watching movies at my house...beh.

I saw earlier that Oklahoma State accepted a bid to the Cotton Bowl, and Texas is going to the BCS championship...so our household is good.

I have to say if I were a Boise State or TCU fan I would be pissed off right now. They don't even get a chance to "prove" themselves against a major team this year. It is like the selection committee just assigned them so they can go play in the corner and not upset any of the big teams.

I am so for a play off system even more this year than most years.

isn't this the truth...actually the word in our house was whatbullshit...it was like they just didn't even want them in the mix so they tossed them together, seriously this was the biggest blatant slap in the face I could possibly have thought of.  I am still mad about it this morning and I'm not even a fan of either.

ETA: what would the BSC (aka BCS) have done if Cincy would have lost to Pitt, have a tri-team scrimmage with TCU/Cincy/Boise in Nick Saban's backyard?

You never know.  The question is, can our defense regroup and stop y'all.

I agree.  Both teams (TCU, especially) got hosed.

 DH was not pleased.  Perhaps the other teams are scared to play TCU and Boise.  Wait, we know they are because they won't even put them on their schedule.  Wimps!

I would have loved to have seen Iowa play Boise. I thought that was the matchup we were going to get. Although Iowa isn't considered an elite team so I guess there isn't the fear there as much as other teams.

I agree.  That's a crappy move right there.

I think Ga Tech - TCU / Boise State - Iowa would have been much better match-ups.  Oh, well.  The BCS rarely gets it right (for match-ups other than the BCSNC, anyway).
