The CFB Bowl selections are tonight, 8:30 on ESPN.

Reason I started this thread... New York Times' Pete Thamel is reporting that a source tells him Northern Illinois slipped into the top 16 and will play in the Orange Bowl against Florida State. ESPN's BCS guru Brad Edwards says he thinks NIU is in too.

Either way, bowl selections are starting to leak this afternoon.

Would rather have Sumlin back on the coaching staff thats for sure. Be interesting to see, its Aggie we've owned them, but now they have one of our coaches. Mike Stoops better have the D ready to go.

Jimbo getting out coached by clowns...as usual. In other news water is wet. Golden Al is going to destroy him once the talent gap narrows.

If we played Notre Dame, we would have a chance, but we would struggle with many teams at the top, especially those with dynamic offenses. OSU is a top 10 team, but not deserving of a national championship game this year. The really great thing is it allows us to recruit while other programs are preparing for bowl games. I look for Meyer to win his first national championship at OSU in 2 years. Exciting times, thanks for your concern.

FSU has 330 yards vs 110 for NIU.

How is this only 14-3?

UNI is just physically outmatched.

Guys to watch tonight in the Sugar Bowl. * = underclassman

Florida:

*Matt Elam, S - ballhawk and fearless hitter, a safety tandem of him + Berry would be ridiculous

*Sharrif Floyd, DT - Perfect 3-4 DE but also big & skilled enough to play inside in a 4-3 and still rush the passer. An absolute force.

*Jordan Reed, TE - Big, athletic, pass-catching TE. Needs to improve pass blocking. Was a QB recruit out of HS who changed positions after a year. Still learning how to play TE so will only get better.

Josh Evans, S - mid-round solid safety. He doesn't flash but is usually in the right position and is a good tackler. Not sure he'd be a big upgrade over Kendrick Lewis.

Jon Bostic, ILB - mid-round thumper who would fit in nicely next to DJ

Caleb Sturgis, K - Probably the top kicker in the draft this year next to Hopkins from the school out west. Excellent, clutch kicker.

Louisville:

*Hakeem Smith, S - mid-round. Good size, could put on some weight. Solid against the run.

Mario Benavides, C - good run & pass blocker with nice size.

Sharrif is a monster.
