Some of those are mighty interesting:

* Clemson in the Tangerine and Continental Tire Bowl
* Syracuse in a bowl
* NC State in the Sugar Bowl

*** Almost forgot: ECU in the Hawaii Bowl

since Clemson is there 2 times and GT isn't -- I'd assume they slipped and put Clemson in whatever spot they put GT in.

Maryland 6th in the ACC?????? God I hope not! Last year we would have loved to have gotten 6th place and a bowl. Now I think we'd at least like 4th place. Amazing how expectations change everything.

Or perhaps they slipped and put Clemson in whatever spot Wake is supposed to be in.

I think they suck!!! <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" />

Bowl projections are usually worthless anyways at this point in the season. Plus, CBS and CFN and others don't realize the bowl's desires too. Take last year, when no one picked Arkansas to the Cotton. The Cotton Bowl, mark it down now, will take Arkansas any year the HOGS go 8-4 or 7-4 or better. They can't pass up a guarenteed 45,000 fans showing up in Dallas. The Peach Bowl won't take a SEC West team, etc.

Wait til November..then start projecting!

And I really don't think these things are meant to be taken seriously, just to fuel discussion. JMHO.

Notre Dame/Georgia in the Orange Bowl...LOL, what a pathetic excuse for a BCS bowl that would be.

And how many Husker fans do you think would show up in Shreveport for the Poulon WeedEater Independence Bowl? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

FSU in the Gator Bowl...again? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> Talk a about terrible disappointment.

I think ND/Georgia is a pretty solid projection for a BCS match-up...

We will mostly like see the Jackets up here in Charlotte. It's not exactly the best, but it is a bowl. And it will extend the ACC's second longest bowl streak (6).
