" Welcome to B yes a lot of I'm Craig shame in here to preview the 2008 Sugar Bowl between Utah and Alabama. Charles Davis will join us in a bid to break it all down. But first let's recap the first two BCS game of the year. Well the Rose bowls known as the granddaddy of them all the traditional pac ten Big Ten match up at USC taken on Penn State. Let's check out the highlight. It was the 95 edition of the Rose Bowl in Pasadena trojans strike first Mark Sanchez fires down the middle the Damian Williams who -- 27 yard score US led seven -- an idealized and answered back they'll Clark keeps to himself. Runs up the gut for a nine yard touchdown game tied at seven. USC took over the second quarter first and Jets hooks up with Ronald Johnson on a nineteen yard score that made it 247. Trojans -- Penn State trying to make something happen park what they don't fastest upon agreeing. Green breaks down the sideline in -- on his way when the ball gets knocked loose -- Harris comes away with the fumble. At USC would capitalize Sanchez with the screen this CJ gable. -- turns on the Jets and scores from twenty yards out. Trojans led 317 at the half. Fourth quarter if Sanchez again he scrambles and then -- Johnson all by himself and he's he's six USC wins the granddaddy of them all. In a game that was not as close as the score indicated Sanchez threw for 412 yards and four touchdowns. For more let's head out to Pasadena and are Jackie Pickering."

" didn't really. Look yeah look yeah I didn't came out on top 38 Tony Clark over the Penn State Nittany Lions. I the the -- like I was going to the players and they don't mean isn't that did nothing less."

" No they're playing credible we definitely saw the second half a bunch of times. I think we came out -- the first half we executed. We made plays -- you know who made third downs and that's and that's really what happens to drive alive but about tonight's draft in the first half and in order they -- convert on third downs. Second half we -- we came -- we weren't Bogut probably. We had mistakes and you know we we were like god has some do have been first or second half. -- I know there are divas you know is out of luck there as soon as we did you know. Through another nice -- especially Nuggets more more -- every time some live auction at play here and dives from the last game here is all."

" Had a great rarely do you see well you're never."

" The three last year Rose bowls and he's been. Really really special. It's a great moment and me together with the team and your coach isn't your family and friends so how much shares a soft -- while I was assessments of the coaches there. They're a game plan of the team's preparation because total team victory hats off to a ten day for the great effort. Come on how do we came out on top and and that's -- prepared to bring energy like that back Q well. And finish strong I think you do that. There's been articles coming out about you constantly going to the NFL. And it -- apply for next year you know I haven't thought about it yet. This game obviously changes a lot but you know I never want to leave this school is so special to me and you don't think government fairly -- turn around and -- it."

" Well congratulations. Yankees quarterback Mark Sanchez was awarded. Player and they gave no big surprise -- he consider he had -- yeah not to mention I want you ran in and not hit it. Again you see this like 3824. -- I get big drinker foxsports.com."

" The Orange Bowl featured a -- contrasting style Cincinnati's high octane offense squared off against Virginia tech's always tough -- special teams. So which of these conference champs came out on top. -- take a look at the highlight. Cincinnati playing in their first BCS poll taken on."

" Virginia tech's first quarter Tony pike rolls out a lot of the Marty billiards pool halls it is with a fifteen yard score bearcats led seven there. -- corner Virginia Tech tie rod Taylor's surveys revealed. Besides that taken himself. Taylor shows off a fancy footwork alluding bits and CB -- for a seventy yard score game tied at 74 quarter now Hokies up thirteen seven. Darren Evans takes standoff shakes off a couple of defenders can take today and for the -- high -- led 27. Cincinnati trying to get back again to a big golf -- I'm fourth in golf but I did not Virginia Tech takes over on downs. More bad news -- applied to get picked off by Cody Graham and -- fourth I had to give -- game. Virginia Tech wins this 75 Orange Bowl. At Virginia Tech takes it twenty to seven. The Hokies rushed for 252 yards in this contest had -- deep bench stepped it up big again for more let's head to south Florida."

" As a senior league in their. Phillies finally a bowl win and it was about fifteen minutes your strength against Cincinnati's great for the it definitely you know it's a -- has been -- not thank god for the opportunity."

" Have we knew we had to step by an apology."

" Great favorite talk about big. Motivated because your guys were underdogs."

" We had a stretch -- love I'll wait -- big."

" I miss -- subway opened. Are you are my jokes are graduates of the goal line stand IOC."

" Iowa all next up on the BCS slate of games is -- Sugar Bowl on New Orleans and to break it all down would bring in BCS on fox lead analyst Charles Davis. Charles this year's BCS buster is you talk that you play the Mountain West Conference where they don't play many games of this magnitude. How do you think that they will perform this -- game on this kind of stage against one of college football's elite programs."

" I think they'll perform infinitely better than Hawaii did last year. Yeah and is not a conference thing because we -- Boise State out of -- perform awfully well the big stage Oklahoma remembers them quite well. But coming out of mountain west while they don't play these types of games very often with a national public knows that. They've had these types of games all your loss to Utah opened at Michigan at the big out long before we give Michigan. We're going to have a disastrous season it was still going to play at Michigan and it went there and really control most of the ball game not a big deal for that. At home a titan went against the number two team in the pac ten this year Oregon State the team that beat US date they end up winning that game at home then of course that TCU game was huge because wow what did not national television everyone knew that the winner of that ball game likely it was going to be the BCS -- more this season -- operates out of black uniforms at home when the big ball games. Get -- done late. Terrific job so I think that they're used to games of this magnitude and it is some carry over even if not the same kids. -- carry over into the program but I called the DNA of the program. From 2004 -- admire his group where he did taken to the fiesta bowl not uncharted territory for your top sports fan. The ranks that -- is that strong. It's an old cliche but when push comes this job who has the advantage well I think didn't really I still think that the advantage goes out of them is defense. And the reason I say that they get a huge push up front. With big mountain Cody in the middle of the all American nose tackle we -- 65 pounds but he did have chopped liver playing around it. Alabama all year long with just terrific on defense as well as more than efficient on offense and then you look at the back part of the defense. Rashad Johnson. -- wonderful playmaker in the defensive back position. Probably second or third team all American on a number of list. First team all SEC SEC he's been declared the here are some list he has been terrific -- Rifkin a former walk out -- every game he plays he plays with a huge chip varnish over deacons to continue to prove to people. Why he should have been taken in the first place. He doesn't ever relax and stay -- I've arrived I've that I've got it made now there's so much youth on the defensive side of the ball people thought they would take advantage of that all you would Alabama. They never really did instead the you to continue to grow. Led by Donte' high towering true freshman linebacker who's been just splendid all year long I think Alabama's physical enough. And runs well enough today don't really get hurt no matter what type of offense they've flat yes Florida beat depth. But I game went into the fourth quarter before it was decided."

" I think Charles -- a great season for Nick -- squad and coming up we'll show you how Alabama and you talk earned the right to play in the crescent city. BCS a -- continue. After this short break."

" Welcome back to BCS alive I'm Craig -- coming up Mark Kriegel explains why many schools across the country will be rooting for the utes are right now. Let's talk about the tide. It was a memorable season for Alabama sure they fell short of the BCS title game but everyone who knows college football has the tide is a year ahead of schedule. Still one loss season was good enough to earn Nick Saban squad a trip to the Sugar Bowl. Was take a look back at this season that was struck Alabama. Everyone's -- now."

" Randolph would be good as a coach Nick Saban they just didn't know be so quit. The tide rolled through the regular season finishing with a 121 record book when it comes to the B yes it's better losing early to lose weight. -- downfall. In the SEC championship game urban Meyer's Florida gators they would make Saban preaches religiously they've finished. Alabama got a consolation prize of -- trip to the Sugar Bowl to -- you toss and urban marred -- how Willingham. Separate -- two questions. How what Alabama bounced back after the disappointing loss adds to his game a no win situation for the SEC jog and not. Beat you talk and the reaction is that's what you're supposed to do. Lose and -- as a reputation takes a major hit. Join coach Saban as we usually use -- their hands full. It's."

" It's. Alabama's most storied scored for history this will be -- 56 bowl game which extends their own record. The tide has also won 31 bowl games a record that was tied by USC in the Rose Bowl on Thursday. For more on the tied here's -- Magnuson."

" big news coming out New Orleans for the Alabama crimson tide all American left tackle. Andre Smith the suspended for the Sugar Bowl for violating team policies no details about what punishment is on the coach Saban has decided to replace him with Mike Johnson at left tackle position here's what the players had ever replace -- the best players all the crimson tide team. I wish got to go -- do we're supposed to do every game you know and do our jobs. And focus and concentrate on how we're supposed to execute make the plays that we got. Can go and then and now we can't really worry about that. Alabama will have to go without Andre Smith because you Tully is on January 2 and all they Sugar Bowl reported from the superdome in New Orleans umbrella Magnuson of plush dot net."

" At fox sports. The biggest BCS buster is -- you talked after finishing their second undefeated season in the past five years are looking for their second ES ballwind. When they take on Alabama in the Allstate Sugar Bowl. Perspectives on a lot for the -- and beyond after fellow guys. Yes sir Hawaii was pasted in New Orleans -- Georgia. Utah's strength his. It's which finished eighteenth in the country this year. But they have faced -- running attack like that tied. Offensively and Toronto the Jays over urban Meyer's system storming through opponents six units admittedly struggled with consistency. Winning close games that they felt should have been blowouts. But did you have a streak on the line having won seven straight bowl games. The Sugar Bowl crowd may not be so sweet the throngs of drama fans that are expected to be in the Big Easy wind and the -- non BCS the can hang with the big board rooms and the continued to be on the outside looking. And had the BCS CNN national championships. It's."

" It's. When it comes to college football you talk may not be a household name with the utes are ten and three all time in bowl games. The best record among school -- least ten appearances. Pat this is not their first three CS having destroyed fit in there 2005 fiesta bowl for more on the news here's Alan Ball."

" RE SP EDT cup rarely do you taught you haven't gotten any heading into their match up against Alabama crimson tide in this Friday Sugar Bowl. Now don't think for one moment that that you -- you haven't taken notice of the day -- back."

" But what has now there's not really there's always tough seems they say well. He's solid Lucy's on there you know we don't belong here or realized how you got it seemed kind of leave us out because -- nonexistent Lewis doesn't mean that in good yeah. It's just great athletes or anybody else we have guys run fourteen speed so for his credit goes nonexistent and it doesn't mean we're delighted."

" Anybody else and has been a lot of don't do yeah okay. So we've kind of okay -- are feeling -- it's your best okay. Yeah."

" Case you -- as any other -- so. I'm I'm excited you know I think we've got a great job and our preparation and we'll read the plate with Deb DE."

" victory over the number four Alabama -- in hi this Friday do you are you will get all the way back that they can handle. I'm Alan Ball reporting purple western dot net and talk forward. The -- have a lot to play far -- an undefeated season on the line but more importantly they need to show that they belong -- BCS game because. -- from the Mountain West Conference. Mark Kriegel says you can bet that many schools across the nation will be Utah offense on January 2."

" loss team like Virginia Tech. Should not be playing a bowl game on New Year's Day certainly not at the expense of an undefeated squad like boy he's day. Everybody knows the big conferences. The money making conferences. Enjoy an unfair advantage. Everybody loves an underdog. Pick up the big gaps the BCS doesn't care if the mountain west went six and one this year against the pac ten. The BC yes he's into meritocracy and that's why you talking now finds itself in such a peculiar position. Alabama might be a ten point favorite in the Sugar -- but the pressures on the news while I know it's fashionable to just like Alabama coach Nick Saban. You're better reasons to cheer for you to off against one of the most storied programs in the country. Whether they like they're not. The -- represent. All those teams in the max in the wax -- school you like to root for but seldom see in a bowl game of any consequence. In ten years of BCS football. Only three schools in the smaller conferences have been invited to BCS bowls. You saw being -- by two touchdowns in 5 Boise State famously beat Oklahoma by -- points in overtime a year later. But then last year's darling Hawaii. It was crushed by George. In other words the burden of proof remains with you -- they must show well to show that schools like Bears belong. It's not fair but that's the way it is."

" thanks mark coming up will head to Phoenix to check in on the fiesta bowl BCS live continues. After this. Welcome back to be yes -- I'm Craig shame in coming out we'll simulate that Sugar Bowl with help from our friends it EA sports right now. Let's look ahead to the fiesta bowl. With a Texas longhorns hope to prove to the world that they were worthy of a shot of BCS national championship. Believe it convincing victory over Ohio State to get that done but Texas isn't alone in trying to prove they belong. Don -- has this report."

" Florida. LSU. USC."

" Big game big disappointments for the IOC -- Members of the media and fans have -- didn't seem to but can't have what it takes to get it done in the big games. As -- prepared to take -- one of the best teams in the country attacks. An extra pressures performed on the Big East."

" It's a reality when you have a chance you know on whatever that day was the seventh of December when. You know it all the sudden the fiesta bowl picking new and you're you're in that group of ten teams. You know that are in the BES. Immediately. I think you start thinking about the fact that no we've got to make sure we -- and Ohio State. You know because we've been chosen for that we've got to represent the Big Ten no because we've been chosen that honor that privilege -- yesterday morning. There's a whole bunch of people that. Sure wish they were there and old. I think we we feel that just."

" Osaka that your last game I think he's the biggest thing to me that's like the most pressure. That you could ever put on my shoulder just knowing that it's your last chance with these guys I think it's really important to me that we win. For us and yeah. Let the pressure I feel is maybe more from from my teammates on the outside source just because I -- I know --"

" Whether or not about me they feel the pressure -- Gannett they have much to prove against the longhorns. Reporting from the Woody Hayes athletic patterns under attack classic that -- the college network."

" Thanks Don. Sure there's a lot of pressure on both teams but Ryan Superman can always find the lighter out of things periods on the BCS tailgate Sugar Bowl edition."

" Still up your red plastic -- count him out lawn chair for foxsports.com. BC tailgate. The Sugar Bowl edition. Time runs everything your host to the parking lot party war will preview all things -- with the slightest lack. Let's set up the Big Easy. If you want your -- move there is no better place than New Orleans to me. Knowledge and use to wear a bitter SEC team that could have been in the national title game was totally screwed it up at some point this season."

" Take on one of those talking non BCS conference in nineties."

" That would last year when the nation got to want to live murder take place on TV when Georgia -- the non rainbow Warriors of Hawaii. And this year we get Alabama -- on the Sugar Bowl. Memo will be isn't serious sheep dip at the rolls into the superdome with a -- attitude -- play like he did against Tulane. Or Kentucky. Or ole miss the wings' second -- come definitely pinpoint favorites again."

" We won national sports journal says it's because you -- didn't play any heavyweight outside the mountain west."

" Hannover that's more insulting to the schedule is that you saw the fans of Michigan Oregon State."

" What this game should be close and entertaining. Definitely must watch -- and not just because it's live on fox sports points but because they'll BL the ball game."

" And if you like -- colored crimson hall Bailey. So be -- sugar rush for the sole. The other cats to be the only game or win or lose post game party I'll -- Urban street."
