The BCS Bowl alignment will be settled in a couple of weeks. Right now it appears that they are favoring the 4 in 5 concept. Lets say LSU and USC are ranked 1 and 2 the bowls would probably look like this. BTW the Orange Bowl would host the BcS Title game.
BCS Title Game at Orange Bowl-LSU vs. USC
Orange Bowl-Miami-(ACC Champion) vs. At Large or Big East Champion
Rose Bowl-Michigan-(Big 10 Champion) vs. At Large or Big East Champion
Fiesta Bowl-Oklahoma-(Big 12 Champion) vs. At Large or Big East Champion
Sugar Bowl-At Large or Big East Champion vs. At Large
Now for argument sake lets say Michigan finishes 8-3 and are ranked 17th but they are still Big 10 Champions. Lets say Utah of the MWC finishes 13th they will get an automatic bid.
The other At Large bids are Georgia, Florida State and Texas.
BCS Title Bowl at Orange Bowl LSU vs. USC
Orange Bowl Miami-(ACC Champion) vs. West Virginia-(Big East Champion)
Rose Bowl-Michigan-(Big 10 Champion) vs. Texas-(At Large)
Fiesta Bowl-Oklahoma-(Big 12 Champion) vs. Utah-(At Large)
Sugar Bowl-Georgia-(At Large) vs. Florida State-(At Large)
All BCS Games will have a guaranteed payout of 14-16 Million Dollars.
