AUHansel 0 Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Link:College Football News bowl projections 2004 Fiesta Bowl Preview Bowl: Tostitos Fiesta Bowl When: Jan. 1, 8:30, ABC Where: Tempe, AZ Conference tie-ins: BCS vs. BCS West Virginia vs. Auburn If Auburn pulls off the win over Georgia on November 13th and goes on to win the SEC title, it goes in the Sugar. West Virginia will get the automatic bid screwing a more deserving team from the Big Ten, or possibly Cal. I don't understand why they are saying this. Would we really not go to the Orange Bowl if that were the senario? I just think that if a team goes undefeated in the SEC, plays three teams, maybe 4 in the top ten, and wins the SEC Championship and still not be in the National Championship game. Doesn't make a whole lot of since to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDM4AU 321 Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 That's an old projection. I am not sure how old but it was definitley put out before the UT game. I remember seeing posted on here last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexbo 104 Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 But if USC and Oklahoma are undefeated, I can see where we could only get to BCS #3 because of the 2 polls; the voters would still not jump us over one them unless we dominated a highly ranked UG team in the Georgia Dome like LSU did last year...

PChamp119 96 Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 which is why the BCS blows now. The BCS was great until the new format. I say we just put Utah in the NC because that's the same type calliber of a team as say USC and Oklahoma. If those 2 teams EVER played some competition, then they could talk. USC plays 1 top 25 team the entire year (Cal) and Oklahoma plays 1 or 2 (Texas and I'm sure someone else will be ranked cuz they are in the Sucky12). Auburn on the other hand will be facing a top 10 team 4 times this year. And SOS is gone, same with quality wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
