sounds like we're gator bowl bound as long as we beat cu....most likely opponent?..fsu..assuming they take care of bussiness....i think this would be a great match up for nu...fsu have a good defense but their offense is kinda shaky....they got talents at the skill positions but to be honest their qb makes way too many mistakes....would be a tough test but a winnable game
assuming nu beat cu...nu vs florida st in gator bowl

It would be a great bowl matchup and beating FSU would be a great win for the program. As far as our chances of winning a big game, it depends on what team shows up.

They might win the ACC outright yet. With that conference, it's impossible to predict. Here's what we're looking at:
Atlantic Division
Florida State (5-3, 8-3)
Boston College (4-3, 8-3)
Maryland (4-3, 7-4)
Wake Forest (4-4, 6-5)
Clemson (4-4, 6-5)
NC State (3-4, 5-6)
Coastal Division
Georgia Tech (5-3, 8-3)
Miami (4-3, 7-4)
Virginia Tech (4-3, 7-4)
Virginia (3-4, 5-6)
North Carolina (3-4, 7-4)
Duke (1-6, 7-4)
Conference games remaining:
Maryland @ Boston College
Miami @ NC State
VaTech @ Virginia
UNC @ Duke
Also, GaTech plays UGA, Clemson plays South Carolina, and Wake plays Vanderbilt. I reckon we'll probably get the winner of the Maryland/BC game . . . but who the heck knows with the ACC?
Edit: FSU still plays Florida, too. Forgot that.
Edit 2: Jeez, BC has the tiebreaker over FSU, so if they beat Maryland, they play for the conference championship. A Maryland win sends FSU to the title game. I hate this conference.

If we got matched up with Florida State, I think it would be a great game. The key in that game would be how we can pressure the young Chris Ponder.

The most I've seen of FSU this year was when they wrecked CU. The FSU QB had a few problems, but they have some talent at RB/WR. Their defense showed glimpses of early 90s form.
Even if they lose to FLA (which they probably will), I think they would be favored by 6 or 7 against us.
Still winnable for us, though.

I would love to play Florida State in the Gator Bowl...but isnt the only way that happens is if Boston College beats Maryland & Virginia beats Virginia Tech?

I agree. I don't care who we play either as long as we are in the Gator Bowl. It hasn't been that long since we were in a New Year's Day bowl. Just a few years ago at the Cotton Bowl.
