BCS/Bowl Game Selection Shows Open Thread
It's early, but not sure when the site is going to be up or not, so while there's a window, I'm getting it in. If the hits crash it, could be a really short open thread. But discuss the Michigan Bowl (which will probably be known for sure before the show...if it's not already), and any othre bowl games on ESPN's coverage tonight, starting about an hour away. (By then the 504 errors will hopefully be done).

Kirk is so pissed LOL, ESPN and their playoff agenda is hilarious.

Boise State has 10 fans and no one wants to watch Kansas State get 100 yards of offense
December 4th, 2011 at 8:47 PM ^
Official.
I'll take it. I think we can handle business here.
In addition, f*ck Herbie. "Is this what it has come down to?" Really?
December 4th, 2011 at 8:48 PM ^
What an asshole. His only comment is that UM-VT are undeserving.
December 4th, 2011 at 8:48 PM ^

I don't like the WVU vs Clemson. It sould be Boise St or Kstate.

I don't think that we deserve a BCS bowl personally, but I'll take it. Michigan State deserves it over us. Oklahoma State deserves a chance over an overrated Alabama team who hasn't played anybody. VT doesn't deserve a bid either, but I'm not sold on TCU getting the bid (though I don't know who'd I put in the bowls).
Money is the name of the game and if you can bring it, you'll get there somehow. Fuck the SEC, let's just give them another bias national championship. If I was Oklahoma State and we beat Stanford, I'd fucking count that as a championship season. Fuck the BCS.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:07 PM ^
well... Ok st. coach could always vote for his team if they win and LSU loses, of course he would get fined... seems like i remember this happening recently!
December 4th, 2011 at 11:47 PM ^
I remember it was more Alabama losing that LSU game....not LSU winning it. If you think Alabama is overrated and doesn't deserve another shot, that's crazy IMO.
December 5th, 2011 at 12:10 AM ^
Alabama beat no one. Don't say Arkansas. They suck and needed a miracle to beat TAMU.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:03 PM ^
hold on... MSU isn't a COnference champion, and they have a worse record than UoM. You argue only teams in their conference championships should play, look at the big east! there is a reason the BCS has AQ for proven conferences and harder prerequisites for for crap confereces. case in point look at Houston, they were ranked 6th until they got blown up by a decent team. Now they dont even qualify. say what you want about the BCS but they cater towards proven conferences for a good reason.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:04 PM ^
Nothing that a playoff can't cure.
You know just like the ones they already do in FCS, Div II and Div III.
December 4th, 2011 at 8:53 PM ^
The Heisman trifecta.
December 4th, 2011 at 8:56 PM ^
I don't know why anyone would complain about KState. No good wins, crushed in both of their loses, 2nd most popular team in Kansas. Why would any money hungry bowl execs pick them again?
December 4th, 2011 at 8:59 PM ^
Desmond FTW. Great point about LMJ and 2010 Heimsan.
December 4th, 2011 at 8:59 PM ^
Desmond: Herbie, I'll see your Ohio State helmet with buckeye stickers in the background, and raise you a Michigan helmet with wolverine stickers.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:01 PM ^
Roses went red, so Sugar went blue. Enjoy Tampa Sparty, we're headed for the Bayou!
December 4th, 2011 at 9:04 PM ^
....Outback Bowl
hahahahahah
December 4th, 2011 at 9:09 PM ^
Hopefully the Georgia receiving corps washes the Vaseline off their hands by then.....followed by another Cousins comment regarding how Michigan sat on their sofas at the New Orleans Hilton watching their game.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:10 PM ^
mark may just said that "there is one thing tayor martinez can do - throw the football". ya maybe, but not anywhere near his receivers.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:11 PM ^
My immediate response was, "WHERE AND TO WHOM?"
December 4th, 2011 at 9:11 PM ^
Why is the Cotton Bowl not a BCS bowl? It used to be one of the Big 4 bowl games - Rose, Orange, Sugar, Cotton.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:13 PM ^
You must be old like me. Yes, those were the big four back in the day.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:13 PM ^
Is a kick ass match up.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:15 PM ^
OK Sparty, here's your chance to put up or shut up. Michigan State - Georgia is a premire matchup. Both teams were participants in their conference championship games. If you want to be precieved as a top team, stop whining and go toe to toe with a top SEC team.

Thanks. I'll pass along the advice to the coaches so they know to take the game seriously.

December 4th, 2011 at 9:29 PM ^
Cool.
Tell them not to rough the punter too.

December 5th, 2011 at 12:10 AM ^
about these My Pretty Pony cartoons. Is a progeny of yours forcing you to provide this form of entertainment at all times?
December 4th, 2011 at 9:21 PM ^
I know this is waaay off topic but it is distracting the hell out of me right now. Am I the only one to notice this????
December 4th, 2011 at 9:34 PM ^
The program is the thread. And no, I didn't notice till you pointed it out. But it's weird.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:21 PM ^
Very interesting B1G matchups on New Years Day:
- Nebraska - South Carolina,
- Michigan State - Georgia,
- Ohio State - Florida
I think the B1G can compete straight up in all of these if the teams focus on the business at hand, and not palm trees and Disney World.
My remote control trigger finger will be itchy. I'll watch all three at the same time.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:27 PM ^
SC is terrible. I think NU rolls them.
MSU over Georgia as long as Sparty doesn't Sparty.
Ohio over UF because Urban will steal Charlies schematics.
December 4th, 2011 at 9:25 PM ^
Notre Dame is playing in a Dec 29th bowl game. That's what Lou Holtz predicted, right?
December 4th, 2011 at 9:52 PM ^
Dec. 29th is the new New Years Day since the NC is practically in mid-Jan
December 4th, 2011 at 9:39 PM ^
If so, I understand the rumors.
December 4th, 2011 at 10:05 PM ^
Coming up next.
