This slate of BCS games is actually quite possible
NC - Notre Dame v. Georgia
Fiesta - Kansas State v. Oregon
Sugar - Florida v. Louisville
Rose - UCLA v. Wisconsin
Orange - Georgia Tech v. Kent State
If this happens I think collectively it will be the worst collection of BCS games ever with only the title and Fiesta being even remotely watchable by a casual fan.
Where's 'Bama?
He's projecting a "worse case scenario" for the Bowls. If Bama loses against Georgia, they most likely won't be invited to a BCS bowl, as Georgia and Florida would claim the SEC's two spots.
Exactly and it isn't most likely, Florida by finishing in the top 4 (it will finish 3rd to be exact) becomes an automatic qualifier. Thus the only other SEC team available would be the Georgia/Alabama winner who gets in as the SEC champion.
And that was the worst case. This is what I actually think the bowl games will look like (which unfortunately isn't much better).
NC - Notre Dame v. Alabama
Fiesta - Kansas State v. Oregon
Sugar - Florida v. Rutgers (though could be Louisville)
Rose - Stanford v. Nebraska
Orange - Florida State v. Kent State
I do think Kent State beats UNI and will finish in the top 16 ahead of the Big East Champ and thus automatically qualify. If they do not then Oklahoma would slide into the Sugar Bowl dropping Rutgers (or Louisville) into the Orange against FSU. In that scenario the 5 games are all pretty solid.
