The First Post

By Jonathan | January 28, 2008 at 8:12 pm

For this post, I’m going to complain. I’m sorry, this is the way it’s going to be today. There’s no other way around it. I’ve tried to avoid this, but alas, I cannot.

The University of Cincinnati football team was recently hosed by the Bowl Selection Committee(s). 

Setting the stage:
BCS Rankings:
20) South Florida
23) Cincinnati
n/a) UConn 

Big East Rankings:
1) West Virginia
2) UConn
3) Cincinnati
4) South Florida 

The order (from best to worst) of bowl games that UC is eligible for:
Brut Sun Bowl
Meineke Car Care Bowl
PapaJohns.com Bowl 

The Sun Bowl said they were going to take USF because they had a better ranking in the BCS polls, and also because [at the time] Oregon State was the team from the PAC-10 that was most likely going to play in the Sun Bowl. UC already beat the crap out of O.State, so I can understand this story. 

The Meineke Bowl decided to take UConn because they were ranked higher in the Big East. 

11/03 -> UC beat #18 South Florida 38-33

11/10 -> UC beat #13 UConn 27-3 

UConn isn’t ranked in a single poll. 

UC got shafted. That’s all there is to it.
