Posted by SynTex on November 29th, 2010 under BCS

Overview

As I expected, Wisconsin stayed ahead of Ohio State. As Yoda might say, “Rose Bowl bound… they are.”

I still stand by my BCS bowl projections from my pre-release post:

Auburn vs. Oregon in the NC
Wisconsin vs. TCU in the Rose
OU/NU vs. Stanford/UConn/WVU in the Fiesta
FSU/VT vs. Stanford/UConn/WVU

Saturday night update

Don’t expect any change in the top 4.

1. Oregon
2. Auburn
3. TCU
4. Boise St

The more interesting question… did TCU piss away its advantage relative to Boise State, with the soft performance against SDSU?

OK, I’ve spent a while looking at this tonight just to make sure there is substance behind this assertion, but it really looks like there is not much chance at all for Boise to leap TCU in the next couple of weeks. Horned Frog fans should feel pretty confident.
