Looking at the possible outcomes in the final week I think this is the pool of teams that we could possibly play in either the Peach Bowl or Fiesta Bowl.

OSU (only if they lost to Northwestern)
Oklahoma (only if they lost to Texas)
Michigan (only if OSU doesn't make the playoff)
Washington State
LSU (highly doubtful they would rematch us)

UCF, Boise State or Fresno State (If UCF loses to Memphis its the winner of Boise State and Fresno State)

Really not in favor of us playing excellent passing teams, couldn't imagine a rematch with LSU either. Love to beat Michigan, but they always have our number. Really I want to throttle Ucf in the Peach Bowl. I really don't understand the scenario with us playing Ucf in the Fiesta, why put 2 Florida teams in Arizona?

My choice would probably be either OSU or Oklahoma for entertainment value.

Not sure about bowl/conference affiliations, but I’d like to play Penn St.

I think we match up well with them, and any chance to beat the snot out of the Fightin’ Sanduskys is always welcome.

I do not think we match up very well with any of these teams.

The Peach doesn't have a conference tie-in. Sports Illustrated's latest projections have us playing Michigan in the Peach & UCF playing Washington St. in the Fiesta. If Ohio State makes the Final 4, Michigan would go to the Rose Bowl vs. Washington because the Rose Bowl always matches Pac-12 & Big 10 unless they are a Final 4 host. SB Nation came out yesterday and predicted that Ohio State would be the #4 seed, Michigan will go to the Rose Bowl, Oklahoma vs. Georgia in the Sugar Bowl and UF would play UCF in the Peach Bowl and LSU would play Washington St. in the Fiesta. However, Memphis is liable to beat UCF without Milton and if that happens, Penn St., West Virginia or Texas could be our Peach Bowl opponent.

I really hope UF doesn't play UCF now since Milton is gone. I personally want their best on the field when UF throttles them, that way none of them wannabe National Champs or their new bandwagon fans (formally FSU fans) can talk sh!t about why they lost.

Come on guys, this one is easy!

I don't give a rat's ass about bowl games, generally.
But this year is special. I want to play Michigan and Butters. That would be epic. I want Mullen to show him what a good coach can do with the same players he only won 4 games with. I also hope none of the players shake his hand afterward.

Nobody apologized for beating one of our backup QB's over the past 8 years or so. I won't apologize if we beat someone ass who's using their backup QB either.

With the Utah/Washington winner getting an auto bid to the Rose Bowl I think they will be one of the teams left out.

Beating UCF wasn't a big deal to begin with...Milton was their centerpiece. He was their team. No apologies for sure but that's like someone forcing you to beat up a handicapped kid. Not sure you brag about it.

We need the off-season momentum badly. Destroy UCF in Atlanta in a packed stadium would be cool. They stand no chance without Milton.

I have no problems beating them with or without Milton. I'd prefer we win rather than lose, so if we play them, I'm happy Milton is out.
