ESPN guy confirming N Illinois in Orange Bowl


Dec 2, 2012, 5:55 PM

McMurphyESPN Brett McMurphy
Have confirmed NIU-FSU in Orange; UF-UL in Sugar; KSU-Oregon in Fiesta as 1st reported by @SIPeteThamel


that bumps Louisville to the Sugar
Oklahoma will now go to the Cotton, and will now play TAMU (TAMU refused to go to Cotton if Texas was there).


Looks like a clear path has opened for us to play LSU in the CFA bowl.

Big Ghost still gets an automatic bid for unknown reasons.***

Dec 2, 2012, 6:13 PM [ in reply to How does Louisville get Sugar over us? ]

our best win this year was ball state.they are the only team we beat with more than 7 wins

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think the real question should be how did NorthernIllinois


Dec 2, 2012, 6:13 PM [ in reply to How does Louisville get Sugar over us? ]

get the 2nd BCS bid over the ACC?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

because they earned it..


Dec 2, 2012, 6:15 PM

like i have said.who have we beaten to warrant us getting a bcs bid?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

True but BCS really sending the message how bad you are ACC.


Dec 2, 2012, 6:25 PM

Poor Orange Bowl getting it stuck to them for being affliated with the ACC just like the Gator was sent crap.

Fla St is 1-5 in BCS games; ACC 3-13. Maybe a win! Yay!!!...***

Dec 2, 2012, 6:48 PM

Same as last year when VT went to Sugar. Second gets better matchup

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Wow, what a horrible BCS bowl lineup.


Dec 2, 2012, 6:49 PM

Stanford vs 7-5 Wisconsin
FSU vs a MAC team
Florida vs Big East
KSU vs Oregon should at least be interesting

I used to not mind A&M, but refusing to play Texas in a bowl? What a joke. This plus making up conference titles makes me hope they never win again

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I can only imagine the FSU whining over this matchup***
