Duve didn't miss my post, I've just been incredibly busy at work. As I'm posting from the office right now before going home to catch some sleep.
Here are my projections if the season ended right now:
National Title Game: Texas Tech vs. Alabama
Rose: Oregon State vs. Penn State
Fiesta: Texas vs. USC
Sugar: Florida vs. Utah
Orange: Cincinnati vs. North Carolina
It's hard to project out the ACC and Big East champions. The Big East will sort itself with a mini-title game coming up between Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. No one wants to win the ACC.
Oregon State controls its own destiny with the Pac-10. Everyone would be excited to see Texas and USC.
Mark Feldman is a freaking moron for putting Texas-Utah in the Fiesta Bowl. If the Fiesta loses a team to the title game, it gets selection 1 and 3 in the BCS with the Sugar getting the 2 and 4 selections. There's no way the Fiesta is going to pass up on a matchup of USC-Texas. Nothing against Utah, but Texas-USC would be a big-time game.
If Oklahoma wins out, we have absolute chaos with three teams in the Big XII South with one loss, all going 1-1 in their mini-conference. I have no idea how the voters are going to work that one out. It's going to depend on how Oklahoma looks in these next two games.
Florida-Alabama is shaping up to be a de facto national semifinal game, but they both have to win rivalry games on Nov. 29.

Substitute BSU for Utah. BYU wins their Super Bowl of Super Bowls and keeps Utah out of the BCS. Neither UNR nor Fresno will be within 21 points of BSU.
I also like Pitt to win the Big East over Cincy.
Also, no one in the world wants to see Oregon St vs. Penn St AGAIN, so I wouldn't be surprised to see the Rose Bowl break tradition and work some kind of deal with another BCS bowl to get anyone else in there.
I don't know if they can work a deal because of the tie-ins with the Rose Bowl.
aren't they supposed to try and avoid re-matches though?
