Final BCS Poll is out…no real surprises!

And here it is…the final BCS Poll in this the last year of the BCS.  1 FSU, 2 Auburn, 3 Alabama, 4 Michigan State, 5 Stanford, 6 Baylor, 7 Ohio State, 8 Missouri, 9 South Carolina and 10 Oregon.  Thank you BCS for recognizing two Pac 12 teams!  In case you did not know it, Stanford has the longest consecutive BCS bowl game appearances of any team in the country!

OK, now the for BCS Bowl games: The National Championship in Pasadena on January 6, 2014, 1 FSU vs. 2 Auburn.  I don’t think anyone can complain about this matchup.  Currently, FSU is a 8 1/2 point favorite.  Um…really?  Auburn seems like a team of destiny to me right now but I guess we will wait and see…still have to get through Christmas and New Years!

Rose Bowl: 4 Michigan State vs. 5 Stanford.  Going to be a great game…maybe the number one game I want to see (close to the National Title game!)

Orange Bowl: 7 Ohio State vs. 12 Clemson.  Oh..what could have been for both these teams.

Sugar Bowl: 3 Alabama vs. 11 Oklahoma.  Bama coming off huge disappointment of losing the Iron Bowl (and the manner in which they lost it!)  Oklahoma coming off a huge upset victory over instate rival, Oklahoma State, knocking them out of a BCS Bowl!

Fiesta Bowl: 6 Baylor vs. 15 UCF.  Sounds kind of like a subplot compared to the above, uh?  Still, Baylor can rock the socks off anyone as far as putting up points and UCF and head coach George O’Leary have had a tremendous season.

So folks, there you have it…the final BCS Poll and the BCS Bowl matchups.  Many other teams will find out tonight where they will go bowling.  Tune into ESPN to find out where your team is heading!

9:30 pm EST Kobe Bryant returns.  He’s back and I will be watching him and at 10:00 pm EST, Betrayal on ABC.

Also, next Saturday, the 114th meeting between Army and Navy at 3:00 pm EST.  This is a rivalry game on a whole other level.  Always a privilege to watch!

Until tomorrow…good night!
