With the SEC Championship the only game left to be played it's a good time to take an "educated" guess at which teams are invited to which bowls.

With one game to be decided, there are still questions unanswered. With the mess that is the ACC, with the Conference USA Championship game left to be played, and with a hopeful end to hearing about the Big12, here's how TerryP sees the games filling themselves out.

A little commentary starts this one off...it's his thoughts, but not necessarily the thoughts of the RTB.com staff (although they should be) on how the fan base should be feeling and thinking this week.

Here is an article where ESPN gives top-to-bottom rankings for each conference. Ole Miss at #3!

It's a toss up between UGA and Ole Miss.

I'll say this, if they were to play this weekend I'd probably pick Ole Miss to win that game.

Another toss up, as weird as this is going to sound, is between LSU and South Carolina. On one hand, we can look at their game in Columbia where LSU won by 7 but as soon as we say that you have to look at the bigger picture. LSU has lost 5 of its last 8 games. South Carolina has won 5 of its last 8 games.
 
The ESPN Florida bias is enough to make even this Gator fan sick. Mark Schlabach is the only ESPN analyst giving Bama a chance.

Ain't just the Gator fans it's making sick! :D

I don't buy into the "ESPN bias" theory.

The only thing that gets on my nerves with any media outlet is blatant errors when they could easily be avoided. Someone giving their opinion is just that, their opinion. The only difference is a lot of them do it on a national stage and we do it among friends.

If you don't like what they are saying, don't read it anymore. If you don't a TV color announcer for a game, switch audio feeds.

I don't give a darn about anything Notre Dame related. But, I got a good laugh today hearing Bob Davie talking about how the spread is how college football teams need to go on offense and how if he would have he would still be the coach in South Bend.
Just my world and how I live it...

I agree with you Terry, but at the same time...and I know for me this is true to a degree...is that it's sometimes fun to hate something. Be it the BCS, ESPN, or a rival team. I will say I don't think there is any bias either, only opinions.

On another note, great write up. I've kinda been wondering how the SEC would end up in bowls.
