Bringing up the rear for the Pac-12 in bowl games are Arizona State and Arizona, which were selected

UW fans were pretty sour after their Huskies flopped in the Apple Cup, giving up an 18-point lead to Washington State and then losing in overtime. A rivalry loss will do that. But with bowl season quickly approaching, there's much to smile about again, starting car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky with a trip to Vegas.
The Huskies car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky have a date on Dec. 22 with Boise State in the Las Vegas Bowl , which is scheduled for a 12:30 PST kickoff and will be aired on ESPN. Considering that the UW finished in a four-way tie in the Pac-12 with a 7-5 overall record, the process of how the Huskies car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky ended up in Las Vegas for their third-consecutive bowl game is a little hazy. But now that the fog has lifted, things car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky couldn't have ended better car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky for the Huskies.
Let's first consider where else the Huskies could have gone. The Pac-12 conference has contracts with seven bowls. The conference champion (Stanford this year) is going to the Rose Bowl to meet Big Ten conference champion Wisconsin, while Oregon (which finished No. 4 nationally, car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky and at 8-1 shares the conference title with Stanford car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky but lost their head-to-head matchup) is going to the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl to meet No. 5 Kansas State. The next Pac-12 bowl in line to choose car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky was the Alamo Bowl, which is going with Oregon State. Next was the Holiday Bowl, which selected UCLA, the Pac-12 South champion.
Bowls don't necessarily have to choose teams based solely on their record. As fans probably know by now, college football is as much a money grab as it is a sport, so when bowls consider which teams to invite to their game, they take into account records, car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky potential car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky TV revenue and what the best matchup in terms of ticket sales could be. When the remaining bowls were deciding how the four teams tied at 7-5 (Arizona, Arizona State, UW and USC) would shake out in the postseason, extra factors besides just the numbers in the win-loss column played a role.
USC was the next team off the board, going to the Sun Bowl. Of course, having a team with a history like USC's would be great for a bowl, so it's no question as to why the Sun Bowl chose the Trojans over the three other teams with the same conference record.
But not everyone on the preseason's No. 1 ranked team is thrilled about USC s impending trip to El Paso, Texas, on New Year's Eve. Via Twitter on Sunday, following the announcement, USC senior linebacker Tony Burnett made his feelings about El Paso known: "Georgia Tech!? El Paso, Texas!? car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky New Years Eve!? FML."
The Las Vegas Bowl was the sixth bowl to get its pick of the Pac-12 litter, and it chose the Huskies over the Wildcats and Sun Devils. The UW didn't play Arizona car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky State this year, but it got crushed by Arizona 52-17 on Oct. 20 in the desert. However, bowl games aren't bound by head-to-head tiebreakers, and try to focus on making the best matchups possible for TV and ticket sales.
So not only does the UW and its fans get to take a trip to Vegas over winter break, it gets an enticing matchup with 10-2 Boise State. The No. 20 Broncos are playing in their third-consecutive Las Vegas Bowl, previously beating Utah and Arizona State, and have become a favorite of college football fans around the nation since they knocked off Oklahoma in a Fiesta Bowl for the ages in 2007.
Boise State may not be from a BCS conference but it's a school people know about and respect, which is a good opportunity for the Huskies to get into the national headlines. The bowl game will also be a preview of the 2013 season opener, when the Broncos will help the Huskies christen a newly renovated Husky Stadium car rentals convertible usa glasgow kentucky on Aug. 31.
Bringing up the rear for the Pac-12 in bowl games are Arizona State and Arizona, which were selected to the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl and the New Mexico Bowl, respectively. The Wildcats lost to the Sun Devils in the season finale and, when bowls were selected, that was reflected as Arizona State was picked over its in-state counterpart.
In the end, though, the Pac-12 conference came out with a record eight eight teams playing in bowl games. But of course, all this bowl nonsense will be gone soon, with a playoff system coming in 2014 .
