Yesterday's BCS shake-up has cast a shadow of uncertainty on the BCS National Championship Game picture. While some fans in Southern California had already purchased tickets to see their USC Trojans take on Ohio State, UCLA indeed stood in the way. Now the Florida Gators and Michigan Wolverines will await the announcement tonight during selection Sunday.
Ohio State is currently number 1 and was idle. Michigan, the #3 team was also idle. Number 2 USC lost to UCLA so it out of the hunt. #4 Florida defeated Arkansas for the SEC Championship. The debate this morning is over who should get the number two slot. Many from the midwest want to see Michigan and Ohio State have a rematch of the Big 10 Championship game in Glendale, but most national commentators think Michigan already lost their chance. They would prefer to see Florida in the BCS National Championship Game.
The announcement will come on the Selection Sunday show on CBS, which starts at 8 p.m. tonight. The affect on ticket prices thus far has apparently been minimal according to the SeatSmart blog. We doubt that will last.

THIS "LOST YOUR CHANCE" IDEA IS A BUNCH OF BS. ITS ABOUT THE BEST TWO TEAMS PLAYING EACH OTHER. FOOTBALL FANS ACCROSS THE COUNTRY, EXCEPT IN THE SEC STATES OVERWHELMINGLY WANT OSU AND UofM TO PLAY BECAUSE THEY ARE THE BEST 2 TEAMS!
