Hot! Bowl Projections

Texas appears like a superb wager intended for also this Cotton or Alamo Bowl, presented that Longhorns play a economical game Saturday night in Manhattan, Kan.

But the particular postseason photo remains consequently murky in which when Texas upsets Kansas State, the particular Horns could however grab a BCS at-large berth within the Sugar Bowl, as improbable as that sounds.

On the particular jump side, in the event Texas is drilled simply by K-State, it could actually slide entirely towards Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl with Tempe, Ariz.

You want Texas from the suitable circumstance, your tank standard with Big 12 jewelry advised the particular American-Statesman. If TCU sounds Oklahoma which is hot, and Texas will get tempted simply by Kansas State, possess Texas supporters checked out and about again? TCU can be finished with gains all the perks more than Texas plus OU.

Oklahoma, that has a tough sport with TCU, statistics into your BCS situation either since the Big twelve month period champ or a BCS at-large candidate.

Although the actual Cotton Bowl continues to be a solid probability when the Longhorns engage in properly Saturday, don capital t anticipate this Texas vs. Texas A&M matchup you see within various other bowl projections .

No one is wishing for that game. It s definitely not likely to happen, this bowl established said.

Another BCS bowl official said, A&M might have a classic case involving extra to lose.

Even the Cotton offers questions about this matchup.

We re not necessarily going to endeavor to creation a game. We re about to let a game arrived at people and also view how the idea falls, stated Tommy Bain, chairman belonging to the Cotton Bowl Athletic Association.

Texas isn t re-discovering your dish reunion in the past Big 12 rivals, along with A&M is definitely thought to be prefer a vacation towards Capital One on New Year verts Day around Orlando, Fla.

The SEC ended up being a different landscape, as well as the actual Capital One Bowl could well be one more new landscape, Bain said. The Cap One features a fresh little one about the block this might have a Heisman Trophy winner (Johnny Manziel).

Capital One officers agree.

It could well be tricky proper to ignore Texas A&M that year, Cap One spokesman Greg Creese said. After possessing this sort of a powerful first year within the SEC your decide one from the nearly all enjoyable participants overall associated with university football, the particular Aggies are a very beautiful team.

The Capital One might be under demand to consider the actual SEC 7steps game loser, Alabama as well as Georgia, besides A&M, to play a new Big Ten staff similar to Michigan, but, some sort of BCS serving recognized said, typically seminars outweigh schools.

If Texas upsets Kansas State, items could easily get intriguing to the remaining BCS at-large bid (No. 1 Notre Dame, No. 4 Florida plus No. 5 various Oregon are tresses to get three on the a number of spots). The Wildcats would have an increased file (10-2) versus Longhorns (9-3), however would have lost head-to-head in addition to finished poorly.

I don big t know if your lots of individuals could remain during focus to see a two-loss Kansas State team that got slammed it has the last a couple of games, a BCS tank established said. The Wildcats ended up routed 52-24 by simply Baylor on Nov. 17.

The Longhorns could territory on your Sugar Bowl s radar.

If these people have inside top rated 14 from the BCS standings, we d definitely consider them, Sugar Bowl spokesman John Sudsbury said. I will point out that they quickly could soon after weekly (in college football) like continue week. If that they possess a gain about Kansas State, this d become an incredible win, plus they could switch upwards within the picture.

Oklahoma also is at problems in case it travels Saturday and may lose out into a 9-3 Texas for your Sugar invite, in spite of OU s 63-21 October beatdown in the Horns.

If Texas was forthcoming off some sort of enlighten the BCS No. half a dozen company plus Oklahoma was forthcoming away some sort of deprivation with a BCS nothing (not ranked), I imagine in that situation Texas will finish ahead of OU, the actual BCS serving established speculated.

Texas overall performance about Saturday would outweigh OU vertisements head-to-head win. Conference championships imply almost nothing within the BCS. (OU could be a Big 12 co-champ.)

Sudsbury said connected with Texas vs. OU: Where that they both equally find yourself inside the last BCS rankings could matter.

Clemson (10-2) of the Atlantic Coast Conference may be the just other legitimate at-large applicant at a BCS conference.

I think the actual Sugar might receive Texas in a very heart rhythm through Clemson, a BCS bowl official said.

But not any Big twelve team will pick up a BCS at-large area when the champion regarding the particular Mid-American title adventure somewhere between No. seventeen Kent State (11-1) and also No. 21 years of age Northern Illinois (11-1) gets to No. 16 with Sunday ersus BCS rankings. That team will be assured the end at-large spot. No. 20 Boise State (9-2), which could engage in at Nevada (7-4), boasts some sort of remote pc help shot.

If one of those BCS-buster scenarios emerges, chances are to put Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl, most likely alongside No. 7 LSU, since Alabama, in case it seems to lose Saturday, currently performed throughout Cowboys Stadium that season, alongside Michigan.

Oklahoma State along with TCU tend to be fine options for the Alamo Bowl, when not really Texas.

Texas Tech and West Virginia attractiveness into the Holiday Bowl.
