Off Tackle Empire, for Big Ten coverage

Post Week 12 Bowl Projections The Big Ten should be sending thank you cards. To Baylor. To Iowa State. To USC (and that's weird to say). Upset weekend increased the likelihood of 2 Big Ten BCS teams to a point of near certainty. And the Michigan pick that this site had early on doesn't look so ridiculous any more. In fact, if two SEC teams are playing a rematch, expect to see the Maize and Blue (expecting a win over Ohio State) as the first replacement pick on Bourbon Street. Also good news, while the trip to New York is out of the picture, losses by Navy and C-USA make it much more likely that all 10 (and you better beat Indiana, Purdue) bowl eligible Big Ten teams will have a home. Right now, I'm calling... BCS Title: LSU v. Alabama Rose: Wisconsin v. Oregon Fiesta: Oklahoma v. Stanford Sugar: Michigan v. West Virginia Orange: Virginia Tech v. Houston Capital One: Nebraska v. Arkansas Outback: Michigan State v. Georgia Insight: Penn State v. Texas Gator: Iowa v. Florida Car Care: Ohio State v. Texas A&M Ticket City: Purdue v. SMU Pizza Bowl: Illinois v.
