Gotta Love the BCS Matchups

By Scott Burks
Welcome to the
best time of the year in college football: bowl season!
This is where you
get the better matchups in the major bowls around New Year's Day and,
unfortunately, the lousy minor bowls where you have teams with 6-6 teams
"going at it".
And then there
are the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) bowls. This is what I live for.
Who got in, and where will they match up? I must say, I LOVE the BCS
matchups.
-
Florida vs.
Cincinnati (Sugar Bowl)
-
Iowa vs.
Georgia Tech (Orange Bowl)
-
TCU vs. Boise
State (Fiesta Bowl)
-
Ohio State
vs. Oregon (Rose Bowl)
-
Alabama vs.
Texas (BCS title game)
While all eyes
will be on the BCS championship game, I will be focusing on the TCU-Boise
State game. For some reason, people were mad that TCU and Boise State
are matched up against each other.
To those people I
ask this question: what would TCU or Boise State gain by playing a one-loss
team? If anything, this matchup serves as one of the best undercards
in quite some time. Hell, I was glad to see TWO teams from non-BCS
conferences make it. Both teams deserved it, and here they are.
This serves as
one of the many reasons why I love the BCS...
