I would've figured our bowl would be in the mid 20 range since some ppl think its a lose lose bowl game :rolleyes:.


9. Tostitos Fiesta Bowl
Connecticut vs. No. 7 Oklahoma
8:30 p.m. ET, Jan. 1

The Huskies won the Big East with an 8-4 record and finished with a five-game winning streak. Oklahoma has been a heavy favorite in the Fiesta Bowl before, and it didn't turn out well. The Sooners will try to end a five-game losing streak in BCS bowl games, which includes three BCS national championship games and two Fiesta Bowls.

The rest of the list (there's a nice picture of Landry Jones there too saying "Will Landry Jones change Oklahoma's fortunes in recent BCS bowl games?")

I'm surprised he slapped a #9 ranking on our bowl too. But I like the phrase of another poster. This is not a lose-lose game, it's a really must win game.

Really is a must-win bowl game. I hate hearing about our BCS record...
