Conference and college names for TCY

[Darkiller]

Where can I find it ?
I think Skydog asked for it as well a couple of days ago but I don't know if anyone replied to that...

If you know where to grab this sheet it would be awesome.
thanks.

oh, and the Bowl names are largely up to you. Not all the affiliations line up correctly, so it generally comes down to making them whatever you want. There are a bunch of people's opinions on what they should be on the old board.

Thanks you guys for your replies : there are all very helpful.

I have one question for FFG:
in your game matchup you have "Gator Bowl Atlantic Coast #2 vs Mountain West #1"

I was surprised cuz I thought the Moutain West champion was to play in the Holiday Bowl instead...am I wrong ?

[vex]

Will there be a bowl, conf, update, etc. this year?

I could be wrong too. If I remember correctly, I compiled that list mainly from the NCAA website. Maybe the bowl berths have changed since ?

Like CT said, "Not all the affiliations line up correctly".

The Moutain West is no longer affiliated with the Holiday Bowl. I think the Holiday Bowl is a Pac-10 vs. Big 12 matchup, not sure which seeds. The Gator Bowl is an ACC vs. Big East or At Large Team. If I'm not mistaken I think the winner of the Mountain West plays in one of those Hawaiian Bowls. Just get a good college preview mag at a newstand and it will have all the info, I think they have them in Paris but I may be wrong.

The Holiday Bowl is Pac-10 #2 vs. Big-12 #3, subject to changes in the BCS of course.

This is always one of my favorites to check out every year, because it seems like there's always a great matchup in this one.
