I heard we might get the Citrus bowl too
I don't see the orange bowl taking Ohio State over Tennessee even then because of the marketing potential of an all orange orange bowl.Was watching the College Football playoff reveal, and one of the talking heads said that because Ohio State has been there so much in recent history, the Rose Bowl would take Penn State instead. They then explain that would leave Ohio State as the highest ranked Big Ten or SEC team left which would send them to the Orange. Bama, as the highest ranked SEC team, would go to the Sugar. That would leave UT as the last man standing and go to the Cotton against a G5 team. Can they even do that?? I thought there were rules about the Rose Bowl having to select the highest rated Big Ten team.
I also don't think OSU would be ok with that because there's the mythos of going to Pasadena in the Big 10.Don't joke... because it could happen per the scenarios mentioned in this thread. OSU gets the Orange Bowl "to mix things up," LSU shocks Ga and gets the Sugar Bowl as the SEC Champ, Alabama gets dropped to the Cotton, and TN drops to the Citrus Bowl. I will march in the streets like it's Jan. 6th.
It’s all about positioning right now for Alabama and Ohio state. If Alabama were 7 right now, with a USC and TCU loss, Alabama couldn’t make the playoffs at 7, they can at 6! It’s the committees last ditch effort to get Alabama in the playoffs! Now let’s say USC and TCU win. The committee may put Tennessee at 6 in the final rankings ahead of Alabama. Absolutely a possibility
Citrus wouldn’t be bad man considering that embarassing loss to South Carolina we haven’t been to a good bowl like the Citrus in years. We shouldn’t complain about thatDon't joke... because it could happen per the scenarios mentioned in this thread.
