It's the last Saturday of College Football. Here's some stuff to watch out for, Spartan fans:
Pittsburgh (15) vs. Cincinnati (5)
It's underway as I type, Pittsburgh is up right now. If Pitt loses, they will earn the automatic-BCS bid for the Big East conference and Cincy will not drop that low in the polls. This will most likely bump the second Big Ten team out of the BCS (3 at-large picks: TCU, Boise State, Cincinatti)
Texas (3) vs. Nebraska (22)
Same situation as the previous game. If Nebraska wins, the second Big Ten BCS team gets bumped out.
If the second Big Ten team gets bumped from the BCS, MSU and Minnesota will be the pool for the Insight and Little Caeser's Pizza Bowl. If that happens, the Insight bowl will probably pick MSU over Minnesota - Minnesota has been there 3 of the last 4 years, so fans won't travel anywhere close to as well as MSU's.
That's all for now! Its finals week for me this week, so don't expect much until after Tuesday.
I LOVE your blog, Arun! You're so well versed in this area. You ought to be one of the guys on those tailgate-type shows who gives comments during halftimes breaks or something. Out of control. We'll see what happens after the displys of our delinquent team, eh? Sucks SOOO much. Bussing to Alamo is just not something that would be fun, but a bowl is a bowl. Love you!
