Bowl discussion.

No doubt its either peach or gator. I'm at either one and planning extra vacation no matter where.

Now with that said, it looks more like peach than gator and the reason is Clemson. I have SC beating Clemson. If they do its automatic. We are going to the Peach. If Fl state and Clemson both win its still peach cause Fl state has the tiebreaker for the ACC.

Now... It looks like Clemson COULD be an at large which would stick the Rambling Wreck in the Peach. This would more than likely happen if FSU beat Florida and knocked them out of the at large. This would probably screw us because the Indian Burial Ground will send the spirits to talk the Peach reps into USCe to play the easier game in Atlanta.

BUT..... The peach and the gator could do like the Cotton and Outback do when it's a sort of toss up for picks..... West could go to Peach and east to Gator. That would mean that we would need to win @ UM and Clemson beat USCe.

Ok I've got a headache now. Who else has an idea.

Peach is a better bowl. It's easier travel and more pay out so I am sure we will get screwed. It will come down as to who is left on the picking list once the Peach get's it's pick.

I'd rather not play Clemson and that crazy offense. Therefore, I'm rooting for them to sneak into the BCS and CFA to want us more than USCe. Give me Georgia Tech. They lost to MTSU. We can take 'em.

95% of current bowl projections...

..have us playing either Michigan State or Northwestern in the Gator Bowl. Unless MSU beats OM by 40 points & impresses the hell out of the bowl selection culture, I am agreeing that it's the Gator Bowl for Miss. State.

We had a great time at the Gator. There is a lot more to do in Jacksonville. Also, the last time I was in the Georgia Dome, the roof blew off.

I'd love that too, but we won't be playing GA Tech, if GA Tech is in the Peach that will mean the gamecocks are in the peach again. We would play in the Gator. That scenario would assure USC has the two games on us and the Peach would almost have to take them again.

Edit: the last part is wrong. That would leave at most a one game separation since it would mean Clemson beat USC. But USC would still go because there would then be no Clemson USC rematch.

If we want the Peach, we beat South Carolina to beat Clemson. That would prevent Clemson from getting a BCS at large (probably) and send them to the Peach.

The Peach and Gator get the 6th and 7th SEC choices, assuming 2 SEC teams in the BCS (likely), and the 6th and 7th are probably us and South Carolina. They won't rematch Clemson and South Carolina, so most likely South Carolina goes to the Gator and us to the Peach. It's also possible that South Carolina would get bumped up to the Outback and someone else to the Peach, depending on how it all shakes out. But I think that's our only path to something other than the Gator.

I wouldn't be scared of them. Concerned yes. They are not too much different than MSU when we were 7-0. They haven't played difficult competition. The only ranked team they played beat them.
