I don't think this guy is as knowledgeable as you claim.
That said, the Illini side is a pretty big dog in all of these games. Troll, you can buy me out with just the avatar of my choice.
Also, forget about Tenn, between LSU, Tenn and UGA, the SEC is a lock to send two teams. The B12 is a lock as well.

I can't believe I'm already an expert in the BCS selection.
I don't know why you guys are talking about Tenn.
The SEC gets 2 teams and Tenn is the 4th ranked of them right now.
The best shot as I see it is for Oklahoma to beat Missouri and for Illinois to move up one spot to 14th so that the Rose Bowl can select them.
The chance of someone in front of Illinois losing that will drop far enough has got to be pretty high. Then Oklahoma beating Miss is what like 30-40%?
That's just one way and its probability is independent of Illinois moving up to 10th place of the eligible teams.
That means that 2 teams have to drop behind them.
So 2 of these things have to happen (I think):
V Tech needs to beat BC.
Arizona State has to lose to Arizona.
Hawaii needs to lose to Washington
Once the lines come out, we'll see but I'm going to guess this is >50%.
