In case you haven’t heard, the BCS Bowl selections came down this evening in a, almost, basketball tournament-esque type announcement on Fox.  We saw the Cincinnati fans jumping up and down as if their team was sent to the East Regional as a number one seed.  Not quite.  It seemed as the BCS Machine wanted us to believe it was as big as the NCAA Basketball Tournament Selection Show, but it wasn’t.  I mean, Virginia Tech, while a good team has four losses.  Maybe Boise State should take their place.

In news closer to home (Fort Worth, TX), TCU has been matched up against those Boise State Broncos led

by senior (what year?) Ian Johnson and his cheerleader wife in the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl.  I had to make sure I got that sponsorship in there as they payed me an undisclosed amount of money to mention it (not really).  TCU is number 11 and Boise is 9th.  This match up may be better than some of the BCS Bowl games!

The Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl also made an announcement.  They have decided to match up Case Keenum and the high flying Houston Cougars against the wicked option oriented Air Force Falcons in a rematch of a game played in early September when the kids from Houston were really thinking about their homes in Houston with Hurrican Ike making an appearance.  Nevertheless, it was a close game.  This one should be fun.

The Collegefootballtopten.com Top Ten should be out either Monday or Tuesday.  I wonder who will be number one.
