...the GMAC bowl has the most compelling matchup I have seen so far, even in projections. Boise vs. Louisville is a great matchup. Utah in the BCS is neat, but they will probably have to play Pittsburgh???

This year reminds me when the bowl season was fun - not as many tie-ins, and people trying to create matchups that were entertaining. Would we get matchups like this in a non-weird year?

The BCS is a cluster F__, and I don't think that they will ever have 4 nifty matchups in the 4 BCS bowls. F the Big East, F championshp games, and F tie-ins

If Utah and Pitt plays, I highly doubt you'll see a sell-out. You got a mediocre at best Pitt team facing the great hype in Utah. This may be the bastard of the BCS bowls this year.

How about Auburn vs VaTech/Miami?

bad uses of orange all around.

I have no interest in the Sugar, and the Orange will be BS if the top 3 remain undefeated

How much interest will Utah draw if Urbie's leaving? They're going to be regarded as one trick ponies, a flash in the pan, a fluke, a one hit wonder...I think you get the picture.

Kind of like what everyone thought of little old BG? hmmm.. we definitely came back in a big way and kept on growing too!

They may draw interest, but how will they play? Anyone remember how well we did with Denny Stolz leaving us during our bowl week? THAT was a great time wasn't it?

Always:

I knew, just KNEW someone would bring up Mr. Lemon Juice On My Papercut Stolz!!!! GRRRRR!!! That guy ... he ... well ... arggghh what an awful, awful experience ...

Utah may gain interest in coaching circles.. they're willing to pay big (relatively).. and they're building facilities as fast as they can.
Good luck to whomever goes out there.. as long as it's not our GB

Hopefully Utah won't notice that....and hopefully Urban won't be saying this again regarding Utah:

Urban Meyer, University of Utah Football Coach
"It's a well-deserved promotion. Gregg is one of the finest football coaches in the country. I knew that when I hired him as our offensive coordinator. The program is headed in the right direction and his hiring will result in a smooth transition for the players at BGSU. I was hoping that would be the direction they would go."

Brandon was going to be as good as gone and already at Utah as OC if we hadn't brought him on as head coach. Coach Stud also would have been gone had Brandon not returned. Hopefully Utah will poach elsewhere this time for Urban's replacement.

Stud was almost gone last year. O'Leary offered some big $$$ for him to come down and coach the Oline
