Beating USuC obviously is super important but

do you not think it'd be better to go to the Orange or Sugar Bowl after beating them than some other crappy one?

Have you seen UCF play?

They are for real and that game would be a tough ticket given their 50k plus student body. In my opinion they are a top 15 team; I think even the couts would agree.

Warning- Arrogance Meter Broken!!!
Well that would give UCF home field advantage, but we proved that HFA isn't all ThaT even with 85k fans. But then again, if the team would have been better prepared. Our 85k fans wouldn't have felt that slap in the face along with the team.

Didn't say that out of arrogance. I was thinking...Win against UCF and the nation says "so what". Lose to UCF and we're the laughing stock AGAIN. Seems like either way it SUCKS.
All the same, I still say win whatever bowl we go to and Go Tigers!

It would be the Sugar Bowl

That's if we win out, FSU will most likely go to the Orange but who knows the way the other teams are playing in other conferences.

Probably Orange

FSU's only challenge was getting ahead of Oregon. They've done that. They will very likely win out and be in the NC. That leaves at large bid for Orange bowl wide open. Sugar would rather have a Big 12 team like Baylor I'd guess

Staying above them will be the hard part...

Oregon has 2 ranked opponents coming up soon, FSU has nobody until Miami & that's it.
Yes, the Florida Gaytors fell from the top 25...
It will depend on how high the Coastal champ is ranked when they play in the ACC championship game, should they remain undefeated.

We will not play UCF or non-AQ team

If FSU goes to the BCS champ game, we would (given we win out) replace them in the Orange Bowl - the Orange Bowl gets FIRST choice in the BCS bowl pecking order after BCSCG replacements this year and I have a hard time thinking they would pick a UCF (even if it is an in-state team), or a Fresno St, NIU, etc.
If FSU still happens to go to the Orange Bowl and we still win out, we would be great candidates for an at-large in the Sugar (vs. SEC) or Fiesta (vs. Big XII).
Of course we have to get our stuff together, but the season is still salvageable with a great BCS matchup well within reach.

Seems like a good opportunity to start our uphill climb to getting dignity back after last sat. night....win rest of conference games step one... Beat USuC step two...Go to BCS BOWL and WIN step three...Start all over next year as preseason top 10 team and WIN WIN WIN again again again

I was wondering this too. I guess he has LSU and Auburn beating Bama? Assuming Auburn wins their other games I guess that is a likely scenario.

Not really interested in playing Auburn
Oct 21, 2013, 6:36 PM

Auburn has very good talent on their lines and now they finally seem to have a good coaching staff to utilize that talent.
Plus I don't want to listen to my Auburn friend after they beat us.
I was hoping Auburn would stay down a couple of years but the talent has been recruited there. Chizik just screwed it up.

Cbssportsline has us in the Chic Fil-A. Bowl. They have two non BCS schools in the BCS mix. I hope they are wrong.

What exactly is the rule regarding Orange Bowl Replacement
Oct 21, 2013, 7:42 PM

Sorry if germans, but is there any ACC tie-in or is it simply an at-large choose anyone they want if FSU goes to the natty?
