louisville in my opinion. they are a very streaky team. they almost lost to syracuse a few weeks ago and they still have pittsburgh and rutgers to play which will be 2 tough games. if Texas doesn't get in then somethings seriously wrong with the bcs. Texas Fight!

There is no limitation on the number of teams from each conference.  There are 4 BCS bowl games, plus the national championship game, so 10 slots. Each of the 6 BCS conferences automatically sends their conference champion.  #1 and #2 goes to the national championship game.  \nBowl Championship Series Selection Policies and Procedures, 2007-2010 Games:\n\nAutomatic Qualification\n\n1. The top two teams in the final BCS Standings shall play in the National Championship Game.\n\n2. The champions of the ACC, Big East, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-10, and Southeastern conferences will have automatic berths in one of the participating bowls after the 2006 and 2007 regular seasons. \n\n3. The champion of Conference USA, the Mid-American Conference, the Mountain West Conference, the Sun Belt Conference, or the Western Athletic Conference will earn an automatic berth in a BCS bowl game if either:\n\n\n  A. Such team is ranked in the top 12 of the final BCS Standings, or, \n  B. Such team is ranked in the top 16 of the final BCS Standings and its ranking in the final BCS Standings is higher than that of a champion of a conference that has an annual automatic berth in one of the BCS bowls.\n\nNo more than one such team from Conference USA, the Mid-American Conference, the Mountain West Conference, the Sun Belt Conference, and the Western Athletic Conference shall earn an automatic berth in any year. If two or more teams from those conferences satisfy the provisions for an automatic berth, then the team with the highest finish in the final BCS Standings will receive the automatic berth, and the remaining team or teams will be in the pool of teams eligible for selection by the bowls as at-large teams.\n\n4. Notre Dame will have an automatic berth if it is in the top eight of the final BCS Standings.\n\n5. If any of the 10 slots remain open after application of provisions 1 through 4, and an at-large team from a conference with an annual automatic berth for its champion is ranked No. 3 in the final BCS Standings, that team will become an automatic qualifier, provided that no at-large team from the same conference qualifies for the national championship game.\n\n6. If any of the 10 slots remain open after application of provisions 1 through 5, and if no team qualifies under paragraph No. 5 and an at-large team from a conference with an annual automatic berth for its champion is ranked No. 4 in the final BCS Standings, that team will become an automatic qualifier provided that no at-large team from the same conference qualifies for the national championship game.\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nAt-Large Teams\n\n\nIf there are fewer than 10 automatic qualifiers, then the bowls will select at-large participants to fill the remaining berths. At at-large team is any Division I-A team that is bowl-eligible and meets the following requirements:\n\n\n  A. Has won at least nine regular-season games, and \n  B. Is among the top 14 teams in the final BCS Standings.\nNote: in order to participate in a BCS Bowl game, a team (i) must be eligible for post-season play under the rules of the NCAA and, if it not an independent, under the rules of its Conference and (ii) must not have imposed sanctions upon itself prohibiting participation in a post-season game for infractions of the rules of the NCAA or the rules of its Conference. \n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nTeam-Selection Procedures\n\n\nThe bowls will select their participants from two pools: (1) automatic qualifiers, all of which must be selected, and, (2) at-large teams, if fewer than 10 teams qualify automatically. The following sequence will be used when establishing pairings:\n\n1. The top two teams in the final BCS Standings will be placed in the National Championship Game ("NCG").\n\n2. Unless they qualify to play in the NCG, the champions of selected conferences are con

I think it should still be Michigan. They played the #1 team down to the wire. USC lost to a lesser team, so they shouldn't be given a shot over Michigan.

If the game is close then yes. After the losses of Cal, Texas, and Auburn today to unranked teams, the chances of this are a lot higher. It is either this, USC (if they win out) vs. OSU/UM winner or Flordia (if they win out) vs. OSU/UM winner

Without a doubt...last year's National Championship Game...University of Texas - USC!!

Ok two things - one the Rose Bowl isn't today.  2 - Ohio_golfer - OSU isn't playing in the Rose Bowl - they're playing in the Fiesta Bowl.  Get your bowl games right people.\n\nAs for the Rose Bowl - I;m cheering for Texas, but I think USC is going to win.  I think you may have gotten a little confused - the Tournament of Roses PArade is today.  I think that the parade is actually gonna get some rain this year....

I trust the BCS.\n\nI think it has been fair over the years, but usually people are upset because only two teams can play for the national championship, which leaves a lot of teams outside looking in.\n\n.

Congratulations to Ohio State for winning fair and square (although you should get rid of that teirrble turf you just installed; what a slippery mess).  I don't want to see rematch between OSU and Michigan.  Would prefer to see you all next year at the Big House for another great game between two great rivalries.  (Our hearts are broken in Ann Arbor).

1st of all its different this year..the National Championship Game is not a bowl game...its Just the National Championship game played in Glendale Az. They will still have the normal bowl games as usual. And yes if they lose their bowl game they will drop in the final BCS standings  which will be released after all the Bowl Games and Championship game have been played.

I would go with Notre Dame because they have the Heisman winner Brady Quinn.  They also return their leading rusher, receiver and their leading interception man.  There are questions about their Defense but since they return all 4 DB's they should have some trouble but not as much.  Brady Quinn is as good of a QB as Vince Young if not better. Jeff samardizja is the best WR in the game and Darius walker will have his 3rd 1000 yrd rushing season.  Look for the Irish to destroy the Nittany Lions, Wolverines, the pathetic Trojans and beat Oklahoma (that's right OK) in the national championship in TEMPE ARIZONA.

No. If Michigan had won the game, I think they become the top ranked team and play in the BCS championship game against another BCS conference team such as the ACC, Big 12, Big East, Pac 10 or SEC champion or Notre Dame. In this case it would probably be Arkansas, Florida or USC. I am not a fan of rematches in D1A college football. You get one shot... You win, you move on, you lose, you go home.

As usual, the winners will be the big conferences.  The losers will be the fans of college football.\n\nHopefully the new BCS chamionship game will be the first step towards establishing a playoff system.

There's too much up in the air this year.  For the past couple or three seasons there have been one or two teams that, going into the Fall, looked like the main title contenders.  This year there are too many to count.  I think Auburn has a shot at running the table this year (like they did in '04), but this time they'll get the spot they deserve to play for the championship.  But Notre Dame, Ohio State, Michigan, Oklahoma, Texas, Iowa, Florida, Georgia, West Virginia, USC, Florida State, Miami (FL), LSU, and California all have legitimate chances of making it to the top of the heap.  That's what's so great about college football!  Every Game Matters!!!\n\nI love your shout out to the Dawgs (that's who I root for), but I'm a realist.  While they certainly have a shot, there are too many question marks left.  Will Joe T. step up as the QB we hope he can be, or will true freshman Matt Stafford win the job and lead us skyward for the next four years?  Will our young receiving corps all meet their expectations?  Will the defense continue to dominate, even with significant losses in the secondary and linebacker units?  Coach Richt is incredible, but can he truly lead us to our fifth top ten finish in a row?  Let's hope so.......
