So I guess that since Big 10 #1 not avail, they can take anybody?

Rose bowl only has to take the champion.

Sweet.

Boise State -6
Oklahoma 96

It IS possible.

Man, that would BLOW for Michigan.

 

[JonWard]

LSU vs Booty - that would be intersting. I am sure things would be said after knockdowns/sacks.

Although, USC at Rose..tough game.

Rose Bowl wants to settle the 2003 championship once and for all :lol:

Yeah, that's going to be a great game...:ermm: It's about as exciting as Wake Forest and Louisville..

 

[TravisHenryCBlockedMe]

It's about as exciting as Wake Forest and Louisville..

:sick:

I know they score points but I find watching Louisville pretty...boring. And yesterday's acc "championship" game gave me my fill of Wake.

LSU '03 bitch-fest: Round 2

I can honestly say I would be much more interested watching LSU USC. Screw traditional matchups, lets see some excitement.

 

[milohimself]

USC had a history in the old days of taking down SEC teams in the Rose Bowl. Let's see if it happens again.

 

[tidwell]

Doesn't look like LSU will get a chance to smack them around.

The 2003 National Champions will have to settle for Notre Dame, I guess.

I agree all the signs say Mich/USC Rose -- It would be hard for the bowl to turn their back on Big 10.

Actually I heard this on 760 out of Detroit late last night, they said that if UF goes to the title game that Michigan has a good chance to end up not being invited to the Rose Bowl.

 

[HawaiiVol]

17 minutes til we find out for sure

Different era. At the time, you had an SEC team a month after the season ended traveling cross country on trains and horse drawn carriages for what amounted to an exhibition game as all rankings and championships were awarded before the bowl.

The last SEC team to travel to Pasedena was Bama in '46, who, by the way, beat USC 34-14.

 

[tidwell]

USC's storied history of taking down SEC teams in the Rose Bowl consists of 2 victories.
