which is better?

BCS or bust.

i like it. but it would be pretty awesome to throw that 'welcome to the big ten' business right back in everyone's face.

I'd take the second option but I'd rather win a Big Ten championship then a BCS bowl.

The goal in my mind is to win the Big 10............plain and simple and anything else is just icing on the cake. If we were to win the Big 10 and win the Rose Bowl........that would be sweet, but I care about the championship more than the Rose Bowl at this point. I would hate to see us lose a 3rd CCG in a row, it's getting old!

The second option with the BCS bowl. BCS bowl trumps all.

i don't think you are wrong...

... but i got to agree with you.

12-2 is pretty sexy....but the again 11-2 with a BCS win is pretty sexy as well. BCS victory momentum going into the offseason would be better than 12-2 with a Capital Bowl win, IMO

very true. i like the B1G part for conference pride and to make a name for us early, but the bcs is all about national attention and becoming nationally relevant.

The question I have, is if we do lose to Michigan or Penn St, can we climb back into the top 14 by the end of the season to stay BCS eligible? Late losses are of course worse. It'll be interesting too to see what MU goes on to do if they do beat us.
