What teams outside of the top 4 would you like to see go head to head in the bowl games?

I really don't know, I know nothing about Utah this year, but OSU fans seemed convinced they want no part of that, so that's good enough for me.

 

The more OSU seems in disarray the more we can leverage this season for more recruiting parity, so outside of just the rivalry, yeah let the media speculate about Ryan Day's job security for awhile.

Michigan State against a pack of rabid wolves. Or if there are no packs that fit the bill Michigan State against OSU again because: HAHA!!

MSU vs Ole Miss - Kiffin would light up that Sparty D and pour it on

OSU vs Utah - Whittingham will have their D ready go and it will give Buckeyes another dose of Michigan style football

I generally just root for the B1G to win bowl games as well as the other Michigan schools (yes even MSU) cause it boosts our resume.  But of course I wanna see tOSU and ND get their teeth kicked in.

Big 10 teams winning in bowl season matters because it creates the perception of the strength of the conference. It is what the SEC lives off of. So, in season when a teams in different conferences all lose and we ask ourselves why the SEC team didn't fall as far as let's say Big 10 team, this is partly the reason.

I like the matchups were going to get.

Ohio State/Utah...that is intriguing. Baylor/Ole Miss? Sign me up!

Notre Dame in the Fiesta. Pitt is a good team.  Not sure who they'd play, but I think one positive to having all of these teams in this #5 - #15 range is now they all have to play each other and the margins are super thin.
