How about Vandy/Ole Miss?

interesting with vandy being 3-0 and all....course historically, ole miss has been one of the games this decade where vandy often manages to screw themselves over at the end of the game and lose (save 07 and 05 of course)

17-17 at the half. the 1st qt. was crazy. Nickson fumbles, Ole Miss runs it back for a TD. Then Snead throw a pick 6 to Vandy and then Ole Miss ran a kick off back for a TD

wow, nutty ending. i guess congrats to vandy, they're finally going to get ranked, first time since like 54 or something isnt it? and they're now 2 games away from a bowl bid too

they have...Auburn, Miss. State, Georgia, Duke, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Wake Forest left. they should win atleast 2 of those (Miss. State, Kentucky) but I think it takes 7 wins to get them in a bowl game for sure

An SEC becomes bowl eligible for the first time in 25 years and they don't make a bowl. I don't see that happening with the SEC having 9 bowls this year.

Plus, its almost a sure thing that 2 SEC teams go to the BCS. Who knows, if something crazy happens, maybe 3.

Interesting game, Ole Miss had a 98 yd KO return TD right?

They gained around 400 yds on offense, Vandy just barely over 200, and Vandy won.

Vandy sealed their win vs USC by running the ball, one of their running backs in post game interviews said coach Johnson told them "we are going to just runn these two plays, run 'em right, and they ate enough clock and kept dodging bullets to win that game and then at the end after causing a Reb fumble inside their own one yard line, Vandy took it from their own twenty to the Reb 23 in about three plays, if Johnson hadn't been so irate about the officials not restarting the clock as per the rules and drawing a five yard penalty, they might have scored a TD rather than the FG that meant the Rebs would have to score a TD in about thirty seconds, a FG would no longer put the game into over time.

Good football game.

It's impossible for the BCS to allow 3 teams from the same conference to be in a bowl.

Let's say Florida makes it to the NC. That's the BCS NC game. UGA or the winner of the West gets Sugar Bowl, which is BCS, and UGA gets invited to the Rose Bowl, which is BCS. Last year there was talk of UGA and USC in the Rose Bowl, why not this year against Ohio State or Wisconsin?

but the problem is the bcs has a set rule saying that 3 teams from the same conference cant end up in bcs bowls. Wisconsin got stuck in a middle bowl against UGA or someone i think because of it. I think the purpose of the rule though is to keep out favoritism, i.e. Wisc winning big 10 but bowls still wanting OSU and UM or something.

Also, the bcs never (save once for the championship...OU) has invited the loser of the conference championship game to a bcs bowl, we lost out b/c of losing to LSU & Mizzou missed out for losing to OU. The loser that week doesnt make it, so your SEC west champ would be out if UF got invited to NC for winning SEC

i still laugh at them taking Illinois last year instead of having a better team to play USC

ugh i know. it was just stupid all over, especially since they'd let texas in the last 2 years and had huge success with watching and ratings, you'd think they'd be fine going for just the best matchup
