Nebraska will play Arkansas in the Capital One bowl and get killed.

Perhaps. But at least it gives the guys coming back next year a nice challenge to end the season. I really don't think a win over a panzy Big 12 team is going to do much.

Michigan dropped from 15th down to 16th in the BCS Standings. They are currently ineligible for an At Large bid.

Michigan st- Wisconsin loser should drop below Michigan and Georgia will too if LSU takes care of business in SEC Championship game

PAC........(2 Guaranteed)
ACC........(1 Guaranteed)
Big East...(1 Guaranteed)
BiG 10......(1 Guaranteed)
Non AQ.....(1 likely Guaranteed) Houston will have to lose and drop lower than 16th to not get a bid.

The champion of Conference USA, the Mid-American Conference, the Mountain West Conference, the Sun Belt Conference, or the Western Athletic Conference will earn an automatic berth in a BCS bowl game if either:

•A. Such team is ranked in the top 12 of the final BCS Standings, or,

That's all 8 spots folks. :)

I can garauntee that Brasky will not be playing UGA, Arkansas or South Carolina in a bowl.

There is no way they get a bowl that high.

But there's 10 spots......4 bowl games plus the championship = 10 teams....

This messed me up earlier as well....

LOL...no worries....I did the same thing a couple-3 weeks ago when talk started about Nebraska potentially getting a bcs at large, and I forgot that they added a championship game to have 5 bcs games.....

LMFAO!!!!!!

Again, I made this error too......:L at both us, but hey we must have great minds since we think alike!!!

JJM kindly informed me I was wrong on this too because the BCS only allows a max of 2 teams per conference.....

HH brought up a possible clause with the language where maybe another team from a conference could if both teams from that conference was in the championship game.....

The new projection by B1G blog writers has us in the Capital One Bowl. According to the SEC guy we are projected to play South Carolina

We match up well against them if we can avoid turnovers.

LMAO I don't think you understand that the Nebraska name carries more weight than just about any other team in the country when it comes to bowls. We travel better than any team in the country.

Yes #1 and #2 don't count as At Large teams. In theory I think Arkansas could be the At Large from the SEC if #1 LSU vs #2 Bama

I believe the SEC has 2 separate scenarios for 3 teams.
Georgia (Auto-bid), LSU/Bama NCG
Arkansas(At Large), LSU/Bama NCG

:L

I don't think NU can beat Arkansas. Defense would have to make some big strides in the next month.
