The big debates...
1. Who will play LSU for the national championship, Alabama or Oklahoma State?
2. Will TCU make a BCS Bowl and if not, then who?
3. Who will take the 70th bowl spot, Western Michigan or Western Kentucky?

I think I have the answers to question 1 and 2 figured out, but I have no idea about No. 3, so I give you both scenarios.

I wouldn't rule Penn State-Texas in the Insight Bowl completely out yet, but it's looking more and more like that Penn State will be passed. Yesterday Texas played its way out of the Insight Bowl, but if Kansas State gets a BCS at-large, that puts Texas right back in the Insight Bowl.

Also, don't rule out Boise State getting an at-large over Kansas State.

Here's my last bowl projections, I kind of mixed and matched different possibilities, too.
