Hoo boy. That's going to be interesting.

The Rose gets an SEC crew; the Sugar, a Pac-12 group.
That's the booby prize for getting shut out of the championship.
Yah...one of the last times the Big XII officials worked the MNC game, they gave us one of the biggest bull**** calls of all time...Ohio State vs. Miami in 2003 with that pathetic "pass interference" call.
If those Acorn Aggies are in this game again, I'm sure the fix will be in for them again...
Really surprised to hear this.
I thought the Big XII had some of the worst officiated games this year. Maybe it's a rotating schedule, and the it was time for the Big XII to officiate the title game.
Apparently it had to do with 'neutral' officials, so SEC does the Rose, which features ACC/Pac-12, and the Sugar has Big Ten/SEC, so that meant Pac-12 crew.
With no team(s) potentially or otherwise in the champeenship, that left the Big XII to the big game. One argument for four teams and five conferences, I guess...
