My picks: Mississippi St., TCU, Arizona and Baylor. The latter could go either way.

Uh no. Arizona and Boise fans will pack Glendale. Baylor will have a million people in Cowboys Stadium. Michigan State will also bring a lot of people. Orange Bowl can't be any worse than 2006 when it was Louisville and Wake Forest.

I hope nobody got a bonus to come up with these names. "New Year's 6 bowls", "Group of 5" conferences.

Dude! Arkansas vs Texas in the Texas bowl! I'm happy!

What the hell is Boise St doing in the Fiesta bowl

Agreement in the new set up was that the highest ranked (CFP rankings) champion from the "group of 5" team in the CFP Rankings would be guaranteed a spot one of the New Years 6 bowls.

That being the case, Marshall got screwed in the rankings with that one OT loss then.

Man... That Peach Bowl is going to be great! (if the "good Bo" shows up)
Orange Bowl is going to be a good one also.. Taking State in that one.

I like these games other than TCU should be in the playoffs. Just my opinion.
