Oregon plays - 22 Arizona - Oregon State (rivarly - looking to become bowl eligible)
Is is possible for Oregon to slip in the final 2 games as the pressure builts... possibly but I would say its doubtful.

Auburn plays - 11 Alabama (rivalry) and 17 South Carolina (SEC Championship)
With all the controversy will they be able to come out of these two games with no losses? Personally I think they lose one of these games.

Boise State - 18 Nevada - Utah State (not a chance!!)
Does Boise State make another big win over Nevada to claim the "team in waiting" if the 2 big ones are to fall? I think they come out with everything they have next week with an attempt to make their claim. If they are going to lose we will know by this coming Friday.

TCU - New Mexico (this will get ugly for NM)
If Boise Falls to Nevada then TCU will be the "team in waiting" or if both Auburn and Oregon slip then TCU will/should move up to second in the BCS standings. Possible? Highly doubtful but atleast they did all they could do and now it will be wait and see.
Another note would be that Boise plays and logs a few bad wins against Nevada and Utah State allowing TCU to take back the #2 spot but I think the chances of that happening would also be slim


My opinion on percentages for teams going to the NC would be...
Oregon - 85%
Auburn - 65%
Boise State - 50%
TCU - %20

Stanford has too much ground to make up and LSU not being in the SEC Championship seems to count them out at this time.

Personally I think it will be Oregon and Boise State unless the voters decide that Boise nor TCU deserve to be in the NC game but I don't see a way that they can avoid it now.

I also see a possibility that Auburn losses a close game to Alabama and then wins big over SC to claim back the #2 spot but with all the News surrounding Auburn will the voters put them back in the NC picture?

JMO and everyone has one. Who do you think will be in the NC game?

oh but wouldn't it be something if Boise State did play Oregon and pulled the upset for the NC. Now I know it doesn't help the strength of schedule or conference case but I would enjoy watching an underdog like Boise win another big one like they did against Oklahoma.
