CBS is high

These are the newest version's of their bowl predictions, in which the national championship is played between Ohio State and WEST VIRGINIA???!!!!????

I'm grasping for something biting to say here, but I'm honestly speechless. For one, I don't see WV staying undefeated. Secondly, they're just not the 2nd best team in the country. No Big East team is.


For the record, they think we're getting the Capital One Bowl (again) vs. Tennnessee - which could actually be an interesting matchup (mostly because I want in on the UT trash talking) and could mean some serious embarassment for us.

Incidentally, they have Penn State vs. LSU in the Outback Bowl. Basically, these teams could fall anywhere in this schematic. An LSU/Wisconsin game could be fun (though I'd be bitter if this finally came about and I'm not in Louisiana) .

Who do you think will be the second best team when the dust settles.

I honestly have no clue. The more I read, the more I guess WVU could be it, but in my head there just isn't something right about that, you know?

Plus, they've struggled at times and I think that WVU, Rutgers and Louisville all meeting each other yet in this season means we won't be seeing any of them undefeated or in the top.

I hate to say it, but I think maybe Michigan and Ohio State are the top two, but since they meet each other in season, they're not both making it to the NC.

God knows I'll be sick if it's USC. They're ranking is far more based on what they did in the past then what they're doing now.

I don't think Cal's out of the picture. They need to be USC, obviously, but I can see USC losing to ND, too, giving them less credence as a big win.

I don't know, I'm looking at the top 10 and I'm lost. I think I'll wait a few more weeks to say anything. I may have already stuck my foot in my mouth with this one.
