Both make a BCS game and be paired.

or..

The Papa John's Bowl. ND gets the BE nod and Uk gets the SEC nod.

ND isn't in the BE in FB.

ND has to win 6 games and they're in a BCS Game. IMO, We would have to win 8 or 9 for that to be a possibility.

ND could take someone's spot if a conference doesn't have enough bowl eligible teams like the Big East in the Papa John's bowl. But it's highly unlikely UK and ND would ever play each other in a bowl game unless it's the Sugar Bowl or the BCS National Championship game.

This is more likely, but someone from the BE will qualify and use the golden ticket.

The BE entry is like the Rich girl, and UK is like Charlie.

Yes I know. But in an agreement ND is eligible for Big East Bowl games and BCS.

Mike Tranghese made that decision for some reason.

Thanks. I did not know that.

THAT is the most idiotic thing I have ever heard of, besides the BCS itself. I will say that IF ND can actually become elite again and used the spot, at least the spot taken would be deserved.

This helps reduce shame if the BE doesn't have enought to fill their bowl affiliations and that in a case such as this, ND might actually SHARE revenue. Just an opinion though.

I don't care who we play in a bowl. I just wanna be in a third straight.
