Only in America Stone Cold BCS Picks

Rather than combine everybody's BCS picks into one boring chalk-fest, I thought it would be more fun to just post exactly what everyone sent in. Don't worry, though. The Top 25 and Heisman balloting will remain secret, but I have a sneaking suspicion you're not going to have much trouble figuring out who chose whom for the Heisman in a few cases. Anyway, on to the picks.

anymouse
BCS Championship – Ohio State vs. Oklahoma
Rose Bowl – Wisconsin vs. USC
Sugar Bowl – LSU vs. West Virginia
Orange Bowl – Wake Forest vs. Florida
Fiesta Bowl – Texas vs. Clemson

That's right. Ohio State, a team some of us (one of us) didn't even have in the Top 25 plays for and wins the national championship. So sad that you have to defend picking a team that's 23-3 the last two years and brings back 19 starters. I guess we have SEC SPEEEEEEEEEEEED to thank for that.

Shane
Rose Bowl – Ohio State vs. USC (USC wins by 10 to go up "aggregate" by 49 for the year)
Fiesta Bowl – Missouri vs. Georgia Tech
Sugar Bowl – Florida vs. Hawaii
Orange Bowl – Georgia vs. Notre Dame

No, it seems Shane didn't know there was going to be a BCS Championship Game this year. But other people around here are a lot better at ripping on him than I am, so I'll leave that up to you. The “aggregate” drop more than makes up for it, anyway.

Slick Dick (that's what he goes by now, right JJH4?)
BCS Championship – Georgia vs. USC
Sugar Bowl – Florida vs. Missouri
Rose Bowl – Ohio St. vs. Oregon
Orange Bowl – Clemson vs. West Virginia
Fiesta Bowl – Oklahoma vs. Auburn

Will Slick's head explode if that championship prediction actually happens? Also, we all love your not-so-subtle dig at the Big Ten here. Unranked Buckeyes go to the Rose Bowl. I can see it now...

JJH4
BCS Championship – Ohio St. over Missouri
Rose – USC vs. Wisconsin
Orange – Wake vs. West Virginia
Sugar – Florida vs. Oklahoma
Fiesta – Georgia vs. Clemson

Wake, Clemson, Ohio State. Big dogs think alike.

Patrick
BCS Championship – Florida over Ohio State
Rose Bowl – USC over Wisconsin
Fiesta Bowl – Missouri over West Virginia
Sugar Bowl – Georgia over BYU
Orange Bowl – Oklahoma over Clemson

Could be wrong, but I think Patrick's going after the reverse jinx here.

Donnie
BCS Championship – Wisconsin v. Texas Tech (Texas Tech wins)
Orange Bowl – Oklahoma State v. Connecticut (Connecticut wins)
Rose Bowl – USC v. Ohio State (OSU beats them for the 2nd time in a year)
Sugar Bowl – Georgia v. Florida State (UGA wins)
Fiesta Bowl – Fresno State v. Notre Dame (Beano's boys roll)

Big dogg. With a Double-G. That's all I can say.

Now, back to enjoying the DNC. Ted Kennedy = the man.

If the damn Rose Bowl wasn't so damn traditional with their Big 10-Pac 10 match-up Ohio St. wouldn't even make the Rose Bowl.

Dropped the ball on that one.
