These are only guesses at this point but well within the realm of probability.

Rose: Wisconsin vs Oregon
Assumes Wisconsin wins out and Penn State loses one of their other two remaining games (tOSU and nebbish) and that Oregon beats Stanford.
My take: Rose Bowl faces the nightmare scenario, UCLA! Bruins at 8-5 get in by winning two of their last three (they lose to USC) while ASU loses one of theirs, then pulls an upset of only slightly less magnitude than say sand aggie over the Sooners by winning the Pac 12 championship game.
Fiesta: OSU vs Stanford
Assumes Oregon beats Stanford, OU beats little brother. This matchup goes out the window if Stanford and/or OSU win out. Oregon and/or OU with 2 losses are left out of the BCS. Then it could be Cincy vs Boise St.
My take: Consolation prize for aggie but still the biggest game evah for them. Imagine the day Luck will have against that defense . . .
Sugar: Alabama vs Boise State
There probably won't be a rematch for the Tide. This is BSU's best game scenario. This would be the third time an SEC team played a BCS buster in the Sugar Bowl. There was Hawaii/Georgia, then Utah/Alabama. After getting thumped by the Utes, bama has something to prove . . .
My take: Roll Tide
Orange: Clemson vs Cincinnati
Clemson still has the ACC championship game so this one could change but Cincy is a shoo-in.
My take: Who cares?
BCS Championship: LSU vs Oklahoma
I hope we don't lose anyone else 'tween now and then, especially from the offense. In the last two games, Sooners have lost players that accounted for almost 40% of the rushing yardage and 33% of the passing yards. Credit to the coaching staff to scheme around the loss of Whaley, the RB by committee. Think they have another rabbit up their sleave to get back 1/3 of OUr passing game?
My take: Be careful what you wish for . . .
