The bowls would be free to select whomever they wish. Under that senario, many bowls would seek to tie themsleves to various conferences to gain the rights to the conference champion or runner-ups. These agreements, would essentially function as AQ's. Most of the major conferences have a historical tie to a major bowl. If this system comes to pass, what are the Big Easts options for a major bowl?

Essentially, we don't have one. No major bowl would want a Big East tie-in and Notre Dame would have no incentive to affiliate with us for that purpose.

Lol...Dude, lighten up, you remind me of Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh. Hopefully, should the BCS return to the old system of bowl selection, the BE can get their champion a slot in a decent bowl.
