I know, just kidding. Bring on Texas, Alabama, and/or Georgia.
I don't share the confidence. I think Texas or Alabama really put the hammer on the Bucks. Georgia in Arizona or Detroit (I know, not doable) could be interesting.

17-4 since 2001
As I see it there are only five teams that we have any chance of playing in our bowl. And the order of which i'd want to play them would be:
1. Florida
2. Alabama
3. Texas
4. Georgia
5. Missouri
I enjoy being the underdog. I enjoy having a lot to gain from a win. I enjoy playing the best team possible. Truth is, anybody can beat anybody on any given day. So if you want to play Missouri or Georgia, just because you'd think we'd win, what happens if we don't? You can never just assume a win. In any case, i'd love to play Florida. I don't care how good they are, I want to see Ohio State play Florida. So i'm hoping for a Bama win, and then a backdoor deal between the Fiesta Bowl and Sugar Bowl.

Wrong glass, Sir.
Boise State--just to shut up the Potato Fredo.
Texas--classic matchup between two all-time top 5 programs and tie breaker for the series
SEC--we need to get that monkey off our back sooner rather than later
Cincitucky--there can be only one "Ohio's BCS Team" so the sooner we let them know that the better

I don't think anyone has assumed a win. From what I've seen and said, it's about a better chance of winning. But, I want to play a deserving team.. Missouri and Georgia both lost since I started my discussion in here. I don't think either of them are quality opponents for a BCS-caliber team, in a BCS game.

Been there already...
After OrSU beat USC, some people here were saying that Troy is a better team than OrSU. That's "after" OrSU won. Then after PSU beat tOSU, people are saying that PSU would get blown out by USC and completely ignored the fact that PSU played a different OSU team than USC did. No one credited OrSU for grinding it out all 4 quarters and got a deserved win.
USC is probably the toughest team to play against in a bowl, but there's less to gain than playing against an SEC/BIG12 team this season. Now if USC beat a couple quality OOC opponent that's not from the Big10 this season, then it would be somewhat different. That's why I want tOSU to draw the best available opponent in the bowl, because there's nothing to gain otherwise. I think tOSU will do quite well in the bowl, good thing there's no ND this year in the BCS because a blowout against them would be meaningless (although satisfying) as far as a quality win.
