Food for thought:

Michigan is #2 in the Big Ten (Capital One Bowl)

LSU loses to Tennessee in the SEC Championship and finishes #2 in the SEC?

[/ QUOTE ]

I would imagine Illinois gets picked over scUM and possibly other teams.

[/ QUOTE ]

But don't bowls have contracts and are obligated to take the #2 team regardless of who it is?

[/ QUOTE ]

How is Michigan #2 over Illinois?

[/ QUOTE ]

They both finished with 2 conference losses and Michigan beat Illinois.

Am I missing something here?

[/ QUOTE ]

There are no conference tiebreakers. They finished T-2nd.

Michigan also has 4 losses to Illinois' 3 losses.

Illinois is ranked way higher in the BCS standings.
