some mistakes
in the connorosu picks, rice, kansas, south carolina and utah are all slated to play two bowl games. in the tortuga picks, the illinois-texasj pairing in the alamo bowl is probably just a copy of the connorosu picks as illinois is also in the champs sports bowl and texas in the bcs championship.
otherwise keep up the good work, love the preview so far!

On mine it should be Michigan vs. Kansas in the Alamo Bowl.

A few notes...
The picking order for this upcoming year is Orange, Fiesta, Sugar.
There is no logical reason for Tortuga to have the Orange select Boise State as their selection, when they could choose from PAC-10 #2 or BigTen #2. Hell, even some BigEast teams would be a better fit for them than Boise State.
Tortuga also has Pitt in the Fiesta. Same story. Pitt/Midmajors will be chosen last.
A much more logical prediction would have been:
ORANGE: Penn State v VaTech
FIESTA: Boise State v Oklahoma
SUGAR: Pitt v Mississippi
As for ConnorOSU’s BCS selections…I don’t know where to begin…
You failed to include a BigEast team, whose champion is guaranteed a spot. You also selected two midmajors. The probabilities of this happening are quite remote. You are basically saying that there will not be a 2nd eligible team from the PAC-10, BIGTEN, OR ACC. That would require a near total collapse of the BCS conferences for NONE of those conferences to have 2 eligible teams.
