The champions of selected conferences are contractually committed to certain bowls, unless they are No. 1 or No. 2. (ACC: Orange; Big Ten: Rose; Big 12: Fiesta; Pac-10: Rose; SEC: Sugar). If a Bowl loses a host team to the title game, then the bowl gets first choice at a replacement team. The rest of the selection order for 2011 is as follows: Sugar, Orange, Fiesta.

Chris Schultz' NFL Season Preview:EACH NFL CLUB FALLS INTO ONE OF THREE CATEGORIES -TSN

Tagged in: Untagged 

http://www.tsn.ca/columnists/chris_Schultz/?id=332180

Whenever I try to assess or evaluate a team's playoff possibility before they have even played their first game, I ask if they are rebuilding, reloading, or refining. Those are three distinct and different categories of assessment, with specific challenges for possible success.

First, if you are rebuilding, you are doing just that – whether it's with a new coach or the reality of lack of talent, the truth is you have no playoff shot this year and in all likelihood over the next three years. Although the future looks bright you just don't know how the players will react and respond to a 16-game NFL schedule.

Madden NFL has an impressive record picking Super Bowl winners; it also takes an annual stab at the much less exact science of predicting the season, which a simulation says ends with Baltimore and Green Bay as conference champions.

Running a one-shot sim in Madden NFL 11's franchise mode, EA Sports returned ties for the best record in both the NFC and AFC; it predicted Green Bay and Minnesota to finish 12-4, with the Packers getting homefield advantage in the playoffs thanks to a better divisional record. The same tiebreak gave the AFC crown to Baltimore, which finished 13-3 alongside Indianapolis.

B.C.S. National Championship Game: Ohio State vs. Boise State

Ohio State

What, you’re surprised not to see Alabama? Although it certainly seems like the Crimson Tide has a little more margin for error (a one-loss Southeastern Conference team has a better chance of playing for a national title than a one-loss Big Ten team), it just seems as if the Buckeyes are a complete team that can navigate the season without a loss. Quarterback Terrelle Pryor gets the headlines, but running back Brandon Saine and receiver DeVier Posey are also legitimate playmakers. On defense, end Cameron Heyward and linebackers Ross Homan (outside) and Brian Rolle (inside) along with a solid secondary complete the package. As long as Pryor has the breakout season that is expected of him, the Buckeyes will be headed to Arizona in January.
