The value of participating in a BCS Championship game

[AlwaysEMAW]

Even the losing teams. Which of those teams is not considered a football blue blood? Va Tech? Oregon is the new kid. Do the Cats get to be a blue blood if we go? How about if we win? Would be kind of cool

3 of the teams on your list will be firing their head coach at the seasons end, another one will never sniff a conference championship again, and one has a coach that rhymes with poops

That's a stupid argument. How many of those jobs will command the market for the best available coaches?

So we don't get to be a blue blood?

OU has lost 3 times since 2000? Woof.

The kstate job is poison to outsiders.  At least until a coach not named old balls wins

[Cartierfor3]

I think we've beat EVERY TEAM on that list in the last 15 seasons at least once.  Pretty sure at least.

Oregon isn't a football blue blood.
 
But looking at that list is still highlights how ridiculously amazing KSU playing in the game would be. It's crazy how few schools have made it to that level.

dude, Nebraska is not in the Big 12 anymore - they have as good a shot as any other rust belt program to win that garbage league
