braxton Miller is an insane combo of entertainment and frustration

This is the worst 2min offense playcalling I've ever seen

[kso_FAN]

Ohio State had about as many chances there as possible. Missed almost a sure TD.

It is a rough ridin' joke that michigan will be in a bcs game.

only up 3 with 7 min left. but, Michigan will have earned it if they win today.

If by "earn it," you mean Michigan will get in ecause they are... Michigan, then yes. Otherwise, no. Michigan will finish 9-3 in an inferior conference. It will be a travesty if the second-best conference in the nation only gets one BCS spot simply because the media slobbers all over teams in the Pac 12 and Big 10.

won't they finish 10-2?  thought they only lost to msu and iowa?

You are right, but I still hate them.

[Dugout DickStone]

Can pretty clearly see why Fickel won't be back.

[Bookcat]

ran 15 seconds off the clock.......then spiked it on 3rd down to set up 4th and 6.... Probably the dumbest thing I've seen all season.

Go Beavers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Michigan is the epitome of mediocre.  8 home games?  GMAFB

Iowa is terrible.

[Tobias]

the only logical explanation i have is that osu hates the wildcats.  that was criminally negligent of them.

Well, they're pretty much as deserving as we are to be 100% honest.

Besides, there are scenarios where we're just as likely to make the BCS as an at-large eligible Michigan.  There are five SEC teams in the Top 14 and two non-AQ teams, which means there are pretty much four spots in the Top 14 that are ineligible.

There are really only two things that can happen that would prevent us from going to the BCS at this point:

1) KSU loses to ISU
2) OU beats OSU

KSU, should we win, will probably sneak into the Top 10 after next weekend.  After that, it's all OU/OSU.  And even if OU beats OSU and we go to the Cotton Bowl, the consolation is a share of the Big 12 title.

It's all win/win provided we beat ISU.

Why on earth are you assuming the big 12 is going to get 2 teams into bcs games?

Because the Top 14 is so littered with SEC teams that there are too many ineligible teams taking up spots.  It may end up that there won't be much 'selection' involved.  Teams will be forced to take the ten eligible teams in the Top 14.

we want a LSU - Bama rematch to maximze BCS slots for KSU cats right?

Or having OSU in the title game. Either or.

[Bookcat]

since LSU vs. Bama seems more likely...that's the scenario I'm pulling for.

and OU had better snap out of it or I think Ostate beats them without much trouble. OU looked like crap today.

[Skipper44]

Yes, my head is telling me to move on from the co champ dream and focus only on BCS - OU looks like poop.

Will still be Boomer Sooner next sat

Or I-State isn't I-Stateo and is actually good...

[TheHamburglar]

Big12 isn't going to get 2 in the the BCS unless Southern Miss beats Houston.  Bama is rolling.  Oregon is rolling.  Even with a Stanford loss they aren't dropping out of the top 14.  An LSU loss next week isn't dropping them out of the top 2.

The at-large pool for 2 spots will be:
Boise State
Michigan
Kansas State
Stanford
Oklahoma or Oklahoma State or Baylor (it doesn't really matter)

The first at-large to the Sugar is Michigan, the 2nd at-large to the Fiesta isn't going to be a Big12 team to play a rematch.  Stanford can loses tonight and still get that spot.

[Winters]

Love how we have this talking point 

[Dugout DickStone]

So, Stanford in this game right?  Would guarantee UND can't sneak in the BCS?

Yeah, there is no way we get a BCS bid.  And OSU will likely get the Cotton if they lose.  God dammit.

I think the Sugar will have 2 at-larges though.
