Okay, so will Nebraska move up a spot in the BCS and pack their bags for Pasadena? Will a 2 loss Colorado team advance? Will Joey get to play piano in the Tournament of Roses parade?

I personally would like to see Oregon go to the Rose Bowl. They had a bit of a fluke loss to Stanford, which had a solid year. They did not get whipped like the Huskers, nor did they lose twice like the Buffs. It would actually be nice to see the Illini taking their rightful Big Ten place in Pasadena, but they are way too far behind.

I am not sure what ripples the losses by BYU and UT will have, but I am not sure that Nebraska is in for sure. Tomorrow will tell.

At least we know he's practicing .....




And this ....

Back in his hotel room, Joey vents .....

Hey....Charlie...watch it....That was no fluke loss to the Cardinal.

The BCS sucks. Go Ducks!

In the just announced ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll, Oregon did in fact move up to #2. However, more importantly, Colorado went from #5 to #3, leapfrogging Nebraska! Will this be enough to move the Buffs past the Huskers in the BCS?

I think Colorado is the one team that really puts the whole "national championship" thing into question. I cannot remember a time that a two loss team in college football was named a national champion. (This would happen if the Buffs go to and win the Rose Bowl.)

Even though I have some heartburn about Nebraska, I would rather see them in the game with only one loss to a hot Colorado team. I still want the Ducks, but most of the analysts are saying that will be difficult. Really a shame when they are rated 2nd in both major polls. That computer ranking mumbo-jumbo is going to haunt the BCS this year.

BTW -- RJ, I did not mean that Stanford was not good enough to win. However, Oregon coughed up a late lead at home. That just does not happen to them. The fluke was that they should not have lost given the circumstances. No detraction from a great year in Palo Alto.
