no way the Rose chooses Kansas over Illinois

C.R.E.A.M.

1 loss Kansas will likely be ranked 3-4 in BCS.
3 loss Illinois will likely be ranked 12-13 in BCS.

You don't get it. The Big11Ten and Pac10 and the Rose Bowl are not like the others. It's like the secret society.

Anyways, KU really should be thrilled with a BCS berth because they certainly don't deserve it over Mizery.

Florida gets screwed by the no more than 2 BCS teams from one conference rule. So does Missouri. BC and UT drop out due to losses. Hawaii gets automatic bid. Illinois moves up enough to get picked, but would still have to leapfrog several higher ranked teams to get Rose Bowl berth. Fiesta Bowl will likely stiff ASU for economic reasons (fans who don't have to travel don't spend much money). Will a team lose its conference and have a shot at the title?

My head hurts, but in a good way.

One time. This is exactly what I was thinking/hoping. I like ASU over Illinois because they play in a better conference and have had more national exposure over the year. Plus, they actually won this week and will be ranked higher.

Of course, the Rose Bowl wouldn't take ASU, but since OSU is going to the NC game, the Rose Bowl will have the first pick among the at-large teams. Kansas is easily the most attractive nationally and will be selected. Then, it just comes down to Illinois and ASU in the Fiesta and I'm hoping that the Fiesta will take the local team that accomplished something for the first time in the football history of the State of Arizona.

Almost no chance Kansas gets selected over Illinois for the Rose Bowl.
