Well, it's all but done. We know who's in. Just a few details to work out.

So, here's the latest educated guess on the bowl lineup.

(Note: * means teams have accepted bowl bid.)

Tostitos Fiesta Bowl
Tempe, Ariz.
Friday, Jan. 3
8 p.m. ET (ABC)
BCS No. 1 vs. BCS No. 2
Ohio State* vs. Miami* -- The two unbeaten teams face off for the national championship. Who says the BCS doesn't work?

FedEx Orange Bowl
Miami
Thursday, Jan. 2
8 p.m. ET (ABC)
BCS vs. BCS
Iowa vs. Florida State -- We admit it. We held out hope the Rose Bowl could keep the traditional Pac-10/Big Ten matchup, but then reality set in. It looks like Iowa is heading to the Orange Bowl to meet Florida State. If it isn't Iowa, look for USC to meet Oklahoma.

Nokia Sugar Bowl
New Orleans
Wednesday, Jan. 1
8:30 p.m. ET (ABC)
BCS vs. BCS
USC vs. Georgia* -- While we know it will be Georgia, it's likely the Trojans -- one of the hottest teams in the country -- will play the Dawgs.

Rose Bowl
Pasadena, Calif.
Wednesday, Jan. 1
5 p.m. ET (ABC)
Big Ten vs. Pac-10
Oklahoma vs. Washington State* -- The Cougars are in. We know that. With Oklahoma's dominating win over Colorado, the Sooners are more than ready to head to Pasadena. But there is the slim chance Iowa could land here.

Capital One Bowl
Orlando, Fla.
Wednesday, Jan. 1
1 p.m. ET (ABC)
Big Ten No. 2 vs. SEC No. 2
Penn State* vs. Auburn -- Red-hot Larry Johnson and the Nittany Lions face a tough battle against an Auburn team that finished well -- a win over rival Alabama included.

Toyota Gator Bowl
Jacksonville, Fla.
Wednesday, Jan. 1
12:30 p.m. ET (NBC)
ACC No. 2 vs. Big East No. 2 or Notre Dame
NC State* vs. Notre Dame -- Well, we know NC State is in. If Notre Dame is left out of the BCS bowls, the Irish play here. If they get a spot in the BCS bowls -- likely the Orange -- then West Virginia is playing on New Year's Day.

SBC Cotton Bowl
Dallas
Wednesday, Jan. 1
11 a.m. ET (FOX)
Big 12 No. 2 vs. SEC No. 3/4 (or Notre Dame)
Texas vs. LSU -- Lee Corso's preseason dream matchup is still a good one, it's just in the Cotton Bowl, not the Fiesta Bowl.

Outback Bowl
Tampa, Fla.
Wednesday, Jan. 1
11 a.m. ET (ESPN)
Big Ten No. 3 vs. SEC No. 3/4

WAC vs. Pac-10 No. 6
Fresno State* vs. Virginia Tech -- With the Pac-10 out of eligible teams, Virginia Tech and "The Untouchables" travel out west to meet Fresno State. One possible note is with a chance of a Big East team taking the Motor City Bowl slot, does that open the door for South Florida to play here?

Wells Fargo Sun Bowl
El Paso, Texas
Tuesday, Dec. 31
2 p.m. ET (CBS)
Big Ten No. 5 vs. Pac-10 No. 3
Purdue* vs. Arizona State -- Purdue has the edge on Minnesota to land here. Arizona State and its high-flying offense should make this fun to watch.
