1-Big Twelve (36.00): Bowl Record: 5-3

Nebraska	Big 12-N	18	6W-2L	USC/Texas
Missouri	Big 12-N	22	7W-1L	Texas A&M
Kansas State	Big 12-N	49	4W-4L	Louisville/Baylor/Nebraska/Missouri
Iowa State	Big 12-N	52	3W-4L	Iowa/Texas/Nebraska/Oklahoma
Kansas	Big 12-N	53	3W-4L	Toledo/Nebraska/Texas A&M/Oklahoma St.
Colorado	Big 12-N	68	1W-7L	Arizona State/Colorado State/Montana State/Georgia/Missouri/Baylor/Oklahoma
Texas	Big 12-S	5	7W-1L	Ohio State
Oklahoma	Big 12-S	19	4W-2L	Oregon/Texas
Texas A&M	Big 12-S	21	7W-1L	Texas Tech
Texas Tech	Big 12-S	34	5W-3L	TCU/Missouri/Colorado
Baylor	Big 12-S	43	4W-4L	TCU/Washington State/Army/Texas
Oklahoma State	Big 12-S	48	4W-3L	Houston/Kansas St./Texas A&M

If Texas wins out, they could set up a re-match with Ohio State in the BCS title game or a rematch of the 2005 Rose Bowl with Michigan. Texas plays rival Texas A&M at home. Big Twelve title game looks like the Texas/Texas A&M winner against the Missouri/Nebraska winner. Oklahoma, Texas Tech, Baylor, Oklahoma State, Kansas, Kansas State and Iowa State scramble to be bowl eligible for the Alamo, Insight, Texas and Independence Bowls (or even the Gator Bowl if the Big East has two BCS teams) after the BCS-Fiesta and Cotton Bowl berths are decided.

2-SEC-Southeastern(37.16): Bowl Record: 3-3

Florida	Southeastern-E	8	6W-1L	Auburn
Tennessee	Southeastern-E	10	6W-1L	Florida
Georgia	Southeastern-E	27	6W-2L	Tennessee/Vanderbilt
South Carolina	Southeastern-E	31	5W-2L	Georgia/Auburn
Kentucky	Southeastern-E	65	3W-4L	Louisville/Florida/South Carolina/LSU
Vanderbilt	Southeastern-E	83	3W-5L	Michigan/Alabama/Arkansas/Mississippi/South Carolina
Arkansas	Southeastern-W	6	6W-1L	USC
Auburn	Southeastern-W	7	7W-1L	Arkansas
LSU	Southeastern-W	13	4W-2L	Auburn/Florida
Alabama	Southeastern-W	26	5W-3L	Arkansas/Florida/Tennessee
Mississippi	Southeastern-W	79	2W-6L	Missouri/Kentucky/Wake Forest/Georgia/Alabama/Arkansas
Mississippi State	Southeastern-W	91	2W-6L	Tulane/Auburn/South Carolina/LSU/West Virginia/Georgia

The SEC title game looks to pit Florida or Tennessee against Arkansas, Auburn or even LSU. The SEC could get two teams to the BCS under this new format; winner to Sugar, loser to Rose, Fiesta or Orange much to the chagrin of the Cotton Bowl. The Bowl spots open for Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina will depend on what those top 5 teams do after the Sugar, Cotton and other BCS spot are decided. The Capital One, Outback, Peach, Music City and Independence are all possibilities.

3-PAC 10-Pacific Athletic Conference(40.03): Bowl Record: 3-2; 1 undefeated team

USC	Pacific 10	2	6W-0L	None
California	Pacific 10	14	7W-1L	Tennessee
Washington State	Pacific 10	25	5W-3L	Auburn/USC/California
Oregon State	Pacific 10	35	4W-3L	Boise State/California/Washington St.
Washington	Pacific 10	37	4W-4L	Oklahoma/USC/Oregon St./California
Oregon	Pacific 10	38	5W-2L	California/Washington St.
UCLA	Pacific 10	42	4W-3L	Washington/Oregon/Notre Dame
Arizona State	Pacific 10	44	4W-3L	California/Oregon/USC
Arizona	Pacific 10	60	3W-5L	LSU/USC/Washington/UCLA/Oregon St.
Stanford	Pacific 10	106	0W-8L	Oregon/Navy/San Jose State/Washington State/UCLA/Notre Dame/Arizona/Arizona St.

If USC wins out, they are in the BCS title game against the Michigan-Ohio State winner; that is, unless their arch-rival, the California Golden Bears upset them again. They also play Oregon and Notre Dame at home, and UCLA in the Rose Bowl. The Pac-10 could get two teams into the BCS if Cal beats USC; Cal to the Rose and USC to the Sugar, Fiesta or Orange. The Oregon-Oregon State and Washington-Washington State winners will determine the spots for the Holiday, Sun, Emerald, Las Vegas and Hawaii Bowls.

4-Big Ten (43.09): Bowl Record: 3-4; 2 undefeated teams

Ohio State	Big Ten	1	8W-0L	None
Michigan	Big Ten	3	8W-0L	None
Wisconsin	Big Ten	9	7W-1L	Michigan
Iowa	Big Ten	32	5W-3L	Ohio State/Indiana/Michigan
Penn State	Big Ten	41	5W-3L	Notre Dame/Ohio State/Michigan
Purdue	Big Ten	46	5W-3L	Notre Dame/Iowa/Wisconsin
Minnesota	Big Ten	62	3W-5L	California/Purdue/Michigan/Penn State/Wisconsin
Indiana	Big Ten	66	4W-4L	Southern Illinois/Connecticut/Wisconsin/Ohio State
Illinois	Big Ten	69	2W-6L	Rutgers/Syracuse/Indiana/Iowa/Ohio Univ./Penn State
Michigan State	Big Ten	70	4W-4L	Notre Dame/Illinois/Michigan/Ohio St.
Northwestern	Big Ten	75	2W-6L	New Hampshire/Nevada/Penn State/Wisconsin/Purdue/Michigan State

It looks like the winner of Michigan-Ohio State in Columbus has the best chance of making the BCS title game; the loser should still qualify for a second BCS game: Fiesta, Orange, Rose or Sugar. Wisconsin and Iowa look to get the Capital One and Outback bids with Purdue, Penn State, Michigan State and Indiana looking to be Bowl eligible to take the Alamo, Champs, Insight and Motor City spots.

5-ACC-Atlantic Coast (44.00): Bowl Record: 5-3

Boston College	Atlantic Coast-A	16	6W-1L	North Carolina State
Clemson	Atlantic Coast-A	17	7W-1L	Boston College
Wake Forest	Atlantic Coast-A	23	6W-1L	Clemson
Florida State	Atlantic Coast-A	28	4W-3L	Clemson/North Carolina State/Boston College
Maryland	Atlantic Coast-A	33	5W-2L	West Virginia/Georgia Tech
North Carolina State	Atlantic Coast-A	57	3W-4L	Akron/Southern Mississippi/Wake Forest/Maryland
Georgia Tech	Atlantic Coast-C	24	5W-2L	Notre Dame/Clemson
Miami-Florida	Atlantic Coast-C	29	5W-2L	Florida State/Louisville
Virginia Tech	Atlantic Coast-C	30	5W-2L	Georgia Tech/Boston College
North Carolina	Atlantic Coast-C	76	1W-6L	Rutgers/Virginia Tech/Clemson/Miami-FL/South Florida/Virginia
Virginia	Atlantic Coast-C	87	3W-5L	Pittsburgh/Georgia Tech/Western Michigan/East Carolina/Maryland
Duke	Atlantic Coast-C	108	0W-7L	Virginia Tech/Wake Forest/Richmond/Virginia/Alabama/Florida St./Miami-FL

ACC will play the role of spoiler with no undefeated teams. One team in the BCS, and the #2 team to the Gator unless Notre Dame get the nod for the Gator. The title game looks to be the Boston College/Clemson against Georgia Tech. Other teams looking to be Bowl eligible include Wake Forest, Miami-Florida, Virginia Tech, Maryland and Florida State as the spots for the Peach, Champs, Music City, Meinke, Emerald and MPC Computer Bowls are decided.

6-Big East (46.29): Bowl Record: 1-3; 3 undefeated teams

Louisville	Big East	4	7W-0L	None
West Virginia	Big East	11	7W-0L	None
Rutgers	Big East	20	6W-0L	None
Pittsburgh	Big East	36	6W-2L	Michigan State/Rutgers
Syracuse	Big East	54	3W-5L	Iowa/Wake Forest/Pittsburgh/West Virginia/Louisville
South Florida	Big East	58	5W-2L	Kansas/Rutgers
Connecticut	Big East	61	3W-4L	Wake Forest/Navy/South Florida/West Virginia
Cincinnati	Big East	80	3W-4L	Ohio State/Pittsburgh/Virginia Tech/Louisville

Three undefeated teams won't last long in this league. Louisville plays West Virginia at home, and could sneak into the BCS title game if USC loses to Cal. One Big East team, Louisville/West Virginia/Rutgers, goes to the BCS, the #2 team will go the Gator or Meinke with Pittsburgh and South Florida looking to go the Sun, Texas, Birmingham or the new International Bowl.

7--Independents (66.00): Bowl Record: 1-1

Notre Dame	Independent	12	7W-1L	Michigan
Navy	Independent	40	5W-2L	Tulsa/Rutgers
Army	Independent	93	3W-5L	Arkansas State/Texas A&M/Rice/Connecticut/TCU
Temple	Independent	119	0W-8L	Buffalo/Louisville/Minnesota/Western Michigan/Vanderbilt/Kent St./Clemson/Northern Illinois

Notre Dame must win out to make a BCS game, this includes beating USC to knock them out of a BCS title game. Otherwise, it looks like the Gator or Sun Bowl for the Irish. Navy may have an inside track for the Armed Services Bowl.

8-Mountain West (68.44): Bowl Record: 2-2

BYU	Mountain West	45	5W-2L	Arizona/Boston College
Wyoming	Mountain West	51	4W-4L	Virginia/Boise State/Syracuse/Air Force

UNLV	Mountain West	107	1W-6L	Iowa State/Hawaii/Nevada/Colorado St./New Mexico/BYU

BYU has the inside track to the Las Vegas Bowl with the Poinsettia, Armed Forces and New Mexico Bowls ready to select from Wyoming, TCU, Utah, Air Force, New Mexico or Colorado State.

9-Conference USA (82.67): Bowl Record: 3-3

Southern Mississippi	Conference USA-E	50	4W-3L	Florida/Tulsa/Virginia Tech
East Carolina	Conference USA-E	86	3W-4L	Navy/Alabama-Birmingham/West Virginia/Tulsa
Central Florida	Conference USA-E	97	2W-5L	Florida/South Florida/So.Miss./Pittsburgh/Rice
