If you do not recall, some custom changes were made to the FBS. Now that "Bowl Season" is upon us, we can reflect on the first year of these changes.

Conferences were forced to sever ties to specific BCS bowls. After #1 and #2 are selected for the National Championship, each of the remaining AQ conference champions are slotted into the bowls. The results were:

(3)North Carolina (10-3, 7-3) vs. (4)Cal (9-2, 6-2) in the Rose Bowl.
(6)Mississippi State (11-1, 9-1) vs. (11)Colorado (10-2, 7-2) in the Sugar Bowl.
(5)Alabama (8-3, 6-3) vs. (8)Wisconsin (9-3, 5-3) in the Orange Bowl.
(7)Georgia (9-3, 8-1) vs. (23) Connecticut (9-3, 6-3) in the Fiesta Bowl.

Also, the Big East had a Championship game, where Connecticut narrowly defeated an SMU team that surprised many with a 9-4 record.
