BCS Predictions as of Nov. 25, 2008
This article is a follow-up to last week’s predictions. I will continue to post weekly predictions until the actual bowl picks come out.
A few key points to remember:
1. No conference can have more than two teams picked for the BCS bowls (sorry Texas Tech).
2. Each bowl makes the pick that benefits that particular bowl itself. There appears to be very little corroboration between the bowls to make picks that benefit all five BCS bowl games as a whole.
3. Utah earned an automatic BCS bid by ranking above all other mid-major teams and by ranking inside the top eight. This fills seven of the 10 available spots, leaving three at-large bids open.
Order of picks this year
1. Bowl that lost No. 1
2. Bowl that lost No. 2
3. Fiesta
4. Sugar
5. Orange
