My initial thought is the loser of MSU/Iowa to the Fiesta ...MSU possible to the Fiesta/Peach...ESPN has a 5.6 Billion investment in the TV contract...No one will admit they have power over (Bowls)...but are they going to let pass the Fiesta match up of Ohio state/Notre Dame(ratings bonanza)....I think this is why it seems 50/50 on the expert projections even when the Rose talking head is saying the top ranked team(he can always say ...he decided to change his mind)...think they would be happy with Iowa(newby to the Rose kind of ...been a while and the Hawks travel )...my guess not so much MSU...If MSU loses they are covered with their initial statements and take OSU ...Both Rose and Fiesta are on ESPN..Everyone knows the statement put out by the Rose Bowl(ref:highest ranked team)...but it seems many are ignoring it in their projections...Hawks win and who cares about the Rose...
