If Wisconsin, Michigan, and Michigan St win today and Wisconsin wins the BiG CCG, ESPN projects Nebraska in the Insight Bowl.

Rose Bowl - Wisconsin
BCS at large- Michigan
Capital One - Michigan St
Outback Bowl-Penn St
Insight Bowl -Nebraska
Gator Bowl - Ohio St
Texas Bowl - Iowa
Ticket City - Purdue
Little Caesers-Northwestern

The Insight is vs the Big XII #4. They'll be licking their chops to have Nebraska play a reunion game.

Their prefered order would be vs

Oklahoma (if they lose to Iowa St or Okie Lite)
Texas (if they beat Baylor)
K. State (if they lose to Iowa St)
Missouri (Slight possibility w/ win over Kansas)

A lot of this will depend on whether or not the Big XII gets a BCS At Large team.


Remember, outside of the BCS CCG bowl games are more about ticket sales than rankings.

I hope we do not play in the Insight...

Any Jan 2nd game (Cap One, Gator or Outback vs an SEC team will do)

Looking more and more like the Capital One or Outback. If Michigan gets the At Large.

Michigan is slim to none for At Large.

like i said on 1st page...bring it on

Texas will likely fall past the Insight Bowl if Houston wins. There won't be an At Large Big XII team in the BCS.

No, your 8 teams is wrong....as long as Michigan is at least 14th, which they should be, they will get an at large.....

Since Nebraska hasn't played Georgia since 1969, I like this projection.
