Looking ahead: 2008-2009 Bowl Game Predictions

Here's yet another entry in the long line of 2008-2009 college football bowl game predictions - this time from ESPN.

FedEx BCS National Championship Game
(BCS No. 1 vs. BCS No. 2) Georgia Bulldogs vs. Ohio State Buckeyes

Tostitos Fiesta
(BCS vs. BCS) Oklahoma Sooners vs. BYU Cougars

Allstate Sugar
(BCS vs. BCS) Auburn Tigers vs. Texas Tech Red Raiders

FedEx Orange
(BCS vs. BCS) West Virginia Mountaineers vs. Clemson Tigers

Rose Bowl presented by Citi
(BCS vs. BCS) USC Trojans vs. Wisconsin Badgers

A few other notables.....

Capital One
(SEC vs. Big Ten) Florida Gators vs. Illinois Fighting Illini
(aka the Zook Bowl)

AT&T Cotton
(Big 12 vs. SEC) Texas Longhorns vs. LSU Tigers
If these two teams couldn't make the BCS, I don't think you would hear a lot of complaints about this marquee matchup.

Konica Minolta Gator
(ACC vs. Big 12/Big East/Notre Dame) Wake Forest Demon Deacons vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish

Gaylord Hotels Music City
(ACC vs. SEC) Miami Hurricanes vs. South Carolina Gamecocks

Pioneer Las Vegas
(Mountain West vs. Pac-10) Utah Utes vs. Oregon Ducks

So... by Mark Schlabach's predictions... Mike Leach, Tommy Bowden, Bret Bielema, and the BYU Cougars all pop their BCS cherries in 2008-2009. Interesting. Notably absent... Urban Meyer, Frank Beamer, Les Miles, and Mack Brown. Interesting.

Y'all hang on to your crystal balls and Magic 8 balls... it's gonna be a long season.
