" Welcome to BCS lives I'm Craig achievement coming up Charles Davis would join a breakdown the fiesta bowl and will recount the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. But right now let's send it to Glendale Arizona -- John bloom tells us what ES on tap."

" Thanks Greg coming up going to tell you all about what it takes to transition. And stadium like the University of Phoenix Stadium from an NFL playoff venue to the venue of the yet the -- just 48 hours later wall -- up glow of Purcell -- team fighting for the -- the bull -- the Texas longhorns and the Ohio State Buckeyes and we'll hear from our expert linking -- thought on who's going to win that big game and back to Craig in Los Angeles."

" I thanks John you got a lot to prove taken on Alabama's only undefeated team to BC yes. That they get it done in the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans our friends at the final score have the highlight."

" Alabama Utah where -- in the Sugar Bowl. You talk jumps on the board early Brian Johnson with a -- strike to break steal at yard touchdown -- nothing. Later in the first jobs part to pretty Godfrey the defender falls down it got a sports. -- jumped to a 21 definitely. I went back -- when you -- weeks ago with a punt Javier Arenas fields that it picked up. We dish it out -- and open field that goes 73 yard touchdown it's seven amateur sports scored this season. Accurately -- quarter now Johnson would pass the ball the ball to him with Bobby Greenwood recovers. That -- a short pass from John parker Wilson would like coffee cup -- course is titled it for. You tell when I pulled -- to connect particularly you can't tell the defender and -- street -- 28 yard score you one. It hasn't -- there in the fourth wheel gets sacked by the utility that's because football and Stevenson Sylvester recovered. You felt once and a BCS buster thirty wants them to fly to right Johnson throws for 321 yards three scores. If you tell that -- seems a perfect their -- you know."

" The Red Sox fans are chanting here in Allstate Sugar Bowl. The Super Bowl -- coach while winning him the perfect season maybe the greatest with a good history. Of you don't football. And it was a win for the little bathroom -- This is a great football team over here. And yeah. It's another think college football's all about players. We could have done this without a quarterback Brian Johnson took over with Brian right now."

" We're going to present awards given moment we will make a rally were going to do this officially. I don't you're excited going to actually David you were here 2000 for the first time with a the program was put off the bat of Brad Johnson -- putting up my first 1% the president. Of the BCS Allstate Sugar Bowl running burns a few words."

" Congratulations to go ride. All you. And so that's -- What does this."

" Am representing Allstate BC you know cool to present the actual trophy Tom Wilson. It's almost up a lot of coaches try to forget this is the actual championship trophy."

" Well worse and a half than 70000 Palestinians thanks for a great night. Now when you put this trophy over your heads."

" And you feel they have the pride that comes winning surge through your reads a lot of good memories here Murton -- that college football's all about making memories."

" But PCS. Why are we bring -- Sugar Bowl executive who didn't let us we have to step up just a moment. The good betting."

" I'd break my kids. Hi my great pleasure to. I am -- me the most outstanding. I coach I just want to ask you you beat the number four team in the country. -- beat everybody who played. We're -- these final rankings I don't know."

" Relations for the -- audience another great state of you saw. The champions of the BCS Allstate Sugar Bowl."

" 3 bowl games down two to go January 5 is that fiesta bowl England there -- And right now we're joined by BCS on -- lead analyst Charles Davis to break it all down. Charles playing in the pass happy big twelve the Texas defensive front was -- his pass rushers. And -- in the Kraft well with 44 sacks but is their ability to stop Ohio State's running attack would be the difference in this one."

" Totally the differences -- Texas -- out -- running the football because that's when Ohio State has its best games. Big game that Ohio State lost against Penn State. -- that simply because of this but it was borne out of the fifth. -- prior had maybe his big if if if you're throwing ball -- 200 yards also threw the ball. When he something bargaining. It. Ohio State want to keep him war between. Ten to fifteen -- really don't want to get above when he because they want that running game eat up things for them. Well Penn State got a matter comfort zone and they'd end up winning the ballgame. That's the same stat strategy after Texas is going to play here what much can that be at the coordinator drop prior assimilating you know that. But winning easily when do you sleep better you sleep better -- letting beanie wells should look for a 150 plus. And eat up clock. Are you sleep better knowing it well fired that you -- his arm. Over the top for me I think that a pro Favre B it would arm because I think -- well -- feel more proven commodity at this stage that Terrelle Pryor is sort of the Buckeyes have their hands -- at Texas quarterback Colt McCoy he -- not only beat you with his arm but -- his legs as well. So you're not going to be able to stop them but how do you try contain him. You make sure that the other running backs don't get off at me because if your taxes and Greg David Carpenter coordinator. You didn't want cold look what'd be your leading rusher."

" You have to do this that. Yes I have a quarterback -- if you don't want him to being the focal point of view -- you still want those other tailback if you don't Texan who recruited talented kids that you that quite well. What one of those guys -- well if no one can get off your feet and take away those guys running the football and make Colt McCoy the oval focal point. He can still beat you but it's going to be harder because it yet."

" Carried on every -- throw it on every play it becomes fatiguing not just physically but mentally. Take away the other guys running the football make Colt McCoy beat the offense for the night. Is he capable -- an awfully talented kid but I would take my chances that way as opposed to an old what that a tailback involve him."

" I think Charles will he had Miami coming up we'll travel back to the beginning of the season and see exactly how the longhorns -- the Buckeyes earned their spot in the fiesta bowl. Mean -- live continues. After this. Welcome back to BCS live I'm Craig -- man coming out we'll hear from urban Meyer and Tim Tebow is they get ready do little battle the sooners right now about a little the Jessica. Well Texas has every reason to -- they finish the season with one loss just like BCS title contenders Florida and Oklahoma in fact. The longhorns topped the sooners earlier in the season. But their particular Miami was denied and they'll have a chip on their shoulder want to take on the Buckeyes. Take a look back at texas' 2008 campaign."

" As they say don't mess with Texas. Especially when their match. As -- bad blood between points and the sooners though you get into the title game despite getting worked over in the red river shootout by your feet. Surprisingly Texas governor Rick Perry did not pull off the text -- but the ground assault on the -- and the boomer sooner or. All of this is bad news for Ohio State fiesta bowl. Texas' offense is -- benefit from the boys brush. The quarterbacks at the school's single season passing record -- sort of touched on the sixteenth straight games. Can except NCAA record for completion percentage in the season with a strong bowl performance and oh yeah he -- the -- Russian. Defensively -- to sharpen their point when it mattered most on the final stretch of the season and on two games they allowed a combined sixteen points and for this season. Lead the nation in sacks combined their talent with a Texas sized chip on the shoulder. And that you're on the desert to become a fiesta bowl massacre. -- Highly Kennedy here at media day of the fiesta bowl we had a chance to talk with some of the tech players about prepared for such a scrambling quarterback like Terrelle Pryor -- what they had. They're great renting you know and very running team and pride those grades -- make employees."

" With his feet he's got much stronger he's much more mature than -- say what we saw how stated. 2006. This is his team now he's a leader of the team he's involved with the defense special teams much better runner much stronger run there before and obviously his confidence level is way up a lot of the bit off them or not I study defense I don't need an office that must let you know from listens and aghast and a team in and from the into you know from watching games this year nice is that it is a very talented player."

" I just think you noses related to -- doctor place one last arm and his group of guys you know everybody's. We we lose we're like Brothers. You know -- going -- Orleans. Remember the days and played aren't it was so like this is a brand new game a brand new season also speaks in. You've already 21. Regular person win and that's exactly I was to lose a regular we're going to going to be as good."

" The Buckeyes clearly the underdog in this yet the bull and one of the big reasons Texas quarterback Colt McCoy we have Ohio State players and coaches how they shot the guy down."

" They tell charity events but -- challenge at think. You know most efficient -- past we've seen earlier maybe your career here in us -- here at. He does that every little thing right it seems like you know he's thrown for eight -- an incompletion. Ample body and that's considered an unbelievable game with -- for a whole season is unheard of and he's extremely talented -- the ball well obviously at least in Russian and you know makes plays when when people are trying to you know -- with pressure he's good exit in the pocket and making big throws and did you -- the highlight of somehow today were he fumbles the ball that stuff doesn't you know and gets big yards on it. To play maker and a great -- that are organization and for the school it really. Can't say enough good things about."

" Kohl's office you know he's the leaders -- everything going to -- groceries on a ball around so. If you're going to slow down there often you have to sort of local local him which you don't really know -- done all season. -- cracked -- about you know when you got -- as accurate as he -- and you know of the emotional leader -- he's -- team this thing. You know is is harder to do to slow him down -- to -- so. You know we're going to try to do what we can beat -- have a good game plan and hopefully it works out."

" You know number one he's he's highly competitive. You can tell that he studied the game tremendously. Is releases so quick he knows exactly what. To do when the ball is snapped he's out a lot faster stronger runner I think than you know people maybe got spoiled with -- The Colt McCoy. -- virtue he was you know leading rusher. This year. He just a great player right now that I've watched all the films and all that. It's. Well leader that he special."

" Thanks John many in the -- guys do not belong but the BCS system -- not a -- out how exactly did Ohio State make it to the fiesta bowl. Let's take a look at their season good news for Ohio State and."

" Their fans they're not playing an SEC team in their ball games bad news they're expected to get roll again by a superior opponent. The Buckeyes reputation has taken major hits in their last two BCS appearance is getting blown out of the BCS championship by Florida and LSU. Don't title game this year but they face -- Texas who anchored by their exclusion from a shot at Florida. May take out of frustration on the blocks. -- surroundings mean anything always you showed feel like no versus their winter homes and Arizona. The team advanced -- be spending their New Year's in the valley of the sun for the fifth time in the last six years."

" I. The fiesta bowl service a nice appetizer to this year's BCS championship game between Oklahoma and Florida. And to whet your appetite let's send it out over to Krista Thompson got down with gators head coach urban Meyer and 2007. Heisman winner quarterback Tim Tebow."

" Well I think he really didn't need to issue that seems kind of Celtics. One with enough right."

" It would have been nice yes a little bit more -- can't wait for the first yeah. -- for a while I think it was. In the living room right on the fireplace. Actually the clintons and there you have it it was a kind of this -- through their threats that are out there and in. But now I think it's in the back corner like behind -- my sister's wedding pictures while police found the right and did today. They have press conference afterwards -- can't transfer guidelines that come back yeah that I might have a chance another enough so tell me coming back I don't know. I would tell you right now well documented obviously -- that she's -- definitely on the game."

" I promise -- one -- a lot of good will come out of this. You're never seen any player. The entire country -- as hard as I will play the rest of the season you never Cecil put stresses teams are so push everybody address this season he never see a team play harder. And we will the rest of the season."

" Did you have any idea what that would have done the comparisons that they've made -- I think it was -- shot I mean I know that you know a lot of reactions from now we're on the positive but did you realize life. That meant to you -- you at this time you know I've been you know after the game. So harbor in the -- that my locker. That is when this. Back. Off both talent and really haven't thought through so when we're out there. Does --"

" You know my team to my coaches on the that I wanted to let everybody know that something good was going to come out of this and it wasn't all bad. In net you know everything happens you have to find good talent and finding good that situation. Now is that no team is going to work harder from this point in we will know player -- from this point that I will -- with my."

" Kind of goal and then -- gonna go look at the great teams that you look forward. And to hopefully having that opportunity to go up against -- big twelve defects. What is it that you're excited about in terms of playing."

" Well I -- hasn't hit a -- and that is yet to play again you know Oklahoma's Texas Penn State's teams like that so. Now getting extensive playing time and that's. -- also played against. You know -- fellow Heisman trophy winner and you know another great team."

" Well when you wouldn't talk about core we've toggle chemistry we've talked about doing right thing. Tim has been in every day we're doing third downs today for examples of leaders of two evils finals -- perform well. The kids were off we we -- practice reporters earlier we practice Tuesday. Tuesday Wednesday Friday Saturday Sunday -- the only office. Because he's such a competitor and wants to put his team in the best position -- and he knows how do you prepare and so. -- I don't normally normally."

" I think stress and coming up Lincoln Kennedy and John bloom tells how they think that fiesta bowl Godown. BCS live continues after this short break. Welcome back to be yes live by and -- Xiamen Mark Kriegel join us in a bit trying to. Help us understand how Jim tressel gets it done in Columbus the first. Let's get into the x.s and Bos. So the longhorns -- the Buckeyes -- Texas sized chips on their shoulders. Both schools have something to prove so which of these two storied programs will come out on top. While the longhorns will be making their 48 bowl appearance which is second all time behind only Alabama. Texas' only previous fiesta bowl appearance was in 1997 against another Big Ten follow Penn State. For more on the battle in the desert let's hear from John bloom and Lincoln Kennedy in Arizona."

" Thanks Craig we're here at the fiesta bowl and I'm here with linking candid in Lincoln as quite a match at Texas. And Ohio at the longhorns clearly the favorite tell us why they are such a dangerous football team."

" When you look at Texas longhorns miracle of course who's leading rusher but this is -- football team and got receivers that like Jordan Shipley who buys a lot of noise knowing the Patriots Wes Welker. I was able to get open space that would make people -- Let's hope book called Quinn led offense has -- so Texas team has suffered from. Come because of your favorites. And they do just one game we play for a national championship really good football -- come up for Ohio State what can they do to win this football well in the Eagles back to old rules as far as football's concerned run the ball control the clock keep your deeper to press possible. Because which has around Texas where's all day. If they're when he -- it got to be 12 punch Chris beanie wells row prior. Great 12 punch got a running game point early. This year -- right through you gotta be healthy you gotta be good with a more low weren't they got to control the game clock that's want to be right."

" You know the Buckeyes have had a couple of tough runs in bowl games back to back years how much does that weigh in their conscience and and they spent the last month and a half hear from everybody about how that the big underdog again do you think that plays a role in the."

" Lack of movement because they definitely team and he hasn't heard about it here in Europe but the last couple years prior to this can't quite perhaps -- cannot -- nobody nobody remembers it. So now they've got about his performance by themselves. If they can be thrown in class they can knock out the of the twelve a team. Like this -- put themselves back in the spotlight it on not only in the not winning when he line but also at the president for next year's teams come."

" Talking about things improve how about the Texas longhorns who feel little -- that they are playing for the national championships can they still prove that they did have a right to go to Miami and claim that game with a huge performance against us."

" An excellent job because we all USC take on a pretty good -- eighteen yesterday and they came out on the winning end and he really set a precedent by the way he did. If tech is able to come out really put to have. Hammered out so how's that. I think that you really make a bid for the final vote. -- we should be house first place votes we should be up there while playing for pass attempts and maybe put little pressure on BCS maybe you playoffs as."

" You would think that Colt McCoy has anything to prove at this point after a season that he had for the longhorns but do you think that maybe he comes in with a chip on his shoulder after not winning the coveted Heisman trophy Award."

" Why would because you you did everything right at one point to put yourself in position player or national championship he did everything right to put yourself in a position to win. Heisman trophy and happens would be -- China's trophy winner. Was -- to -- so you don't Tom Colt McCoy have something to prove -- contacts I have something to prove but just we said earlier. Both teams in this game so that -- both two pretty good teams that's why it's going to be great match."

" I've finally Lincoln Kennedy let's take your pick for what goes down from -- University of Phoenix Stadium in the CF."

" Double while then I'll Texas offseason global -- time I've been impressed with his his knowledge of the offense the way he sort of suppress all the records that Tiant swung like tech a couple of games."

" I think Lincoln and we'll send it back to you Craig in the studio. After going to a national championship games a big time battle with USC and finishing the -- with two losses Ohio State still made it to the -- the ball. Mark Kriegel wants to know how does Jim tressel managed to always make it their big game."

" For those who wish they still -- humans the Lions here is Ohio State. Being thrown to Texas in the fiesta bowl okay I'm kidding. Sort out. But it's typical to overstate the presumption against the buck stops. Having failed miserably in the last two BCS title games there again find themselves in Arizona. The side of their famous 4114. Loss to Florida. That devastating defeat the supposed to provide the inspiration. For the Buckeyes to do battle against LSU in the superdome last year. And maybe it did after role they only lost by twenty now they get Texas a team that averages 45 points a game. Who wants to prove it should be playing for the national championship. Who knows maybe the Buckeyes will only lose by ten this -- still I'd like to know how to loss Ohio State. -- and over no loss Boise State does Jim tressel have compromising photographs. Of the NCAA boss Myles brand actually I have to give coach tressel. A lot of credit. He keeps getting beat the big games. And he keeps landing the big recruits last year he signed quarterback Terrelle Pryor widely considered the nation's top prospect. This year according to scout dot com his recruiting classes ranked first in the country how did he do it. I mean he's not a passionate speaker you looks like the clerk at the DMV. I don't know maybe it's the sweater vests."

" I thanks mark well it's been a busy week for the folks of the University of Phoenix Stadium Saturday they host of the cardinals' first home playoff game since 1947. And now they are furiously trying to get the stadium ready for the fiesta bowl. How -- the transition going let's check in with John bloom -- Glendale Arizona."

" John -- in Arizona getting ready for the -- of -- that's not the only thing going on this week at University of Phoenix Stadium I'm -- joined by the director of operations at University of Phoenix Stadium Jim McDonald and Jim we -- a playoff game the Cardinals had taken on the Atlanta Falcons not much time to get this place ready for the fiesta bowl just a couple days later talk a little bit about all the opera and it goes in to transform in this place from the home of the NFL playoffs to the home of one of the biggest games in college football."

" Well down we started actually at the beginning of the week we did a map preparations are things that we could do prior to the Cardinals games. As well as they will continue. Immediately on the Cardinals game tomorrow night. Approximately 8 or 9 o'clock come away work straight grew up until kickoff on now Monday evening."

" I one of the things I know people know is that the deal look different now for a playoff game and in the NFL as opposed -- jest -- gotta paint different logos we got something going on right behind us is they're getting ready for the Cardinals game but. How long does that take to to change the field looked from what it's going to look like for Cardinals Hawkins -- little look like for Texas Ohio State."

" Same thing the Cardinals as well as the yet above ground crew will start immediately on the game tomorrow night. And they will work rate -- on mom will kick off is well. But you have basically the entire -- we'll get repainted would the teams' logos from the -- ball. As well as CS bowl logos on there I'm different is it now because the window is a much smaller than him might peace day if Seattle weaker ought to prepare. I'm in that yes there is a lot of different is that you know it it it challenge obviously. There is a lot more people. That we bring in -- shorter amount of time. But you know the goal in the end result still the same kind of numbers for a about how many people are working on this project tomorrow night it to the game have approximately who would all entities -- people working in the -- 600 people to transform this play and match. -- all -- a different configuration isn't that that's part of it you have that extra seats -- you'll be adding. For the festival yet we had approximately. 10000 he is building. So. You know will be -- them in his games there."

" If you look at what the place looks like now and M what it's going to look like cam one it's all -- and done from Monday night's game what. What is it dramatically different from somebody's been a point let's say someone's go to bowl games are they going to say. Two different looking stadiums at -- mean the biggest difference is all the Cardinals graphics all over the bill and did -- out when he had the ball so look the look at the S bowl game -- as. It is present. I'd and we appreciate your time in that good luck getting a whole thing done and you get your work cut out for yep thank you very much."

" I think John so I don't think the fiesta bowl will play out will Texas unleash its fury and a hi how's it the Buckeyes proved they belonged. Well don't want to wait until the game. Our friends at EA sports can help is -- the game plan out Texas Ohio State going out in the fiesta bowl and the longhorns' come out firing. Colt McCoy delivers when not one not two but three early touchdown passes background boys up early. Texas ground game takes over from there scoring on this one yard scamper. Ohio State tries to fight back super freshman Terrelle Pryor gets his first fiesta bowl touchdown on this play action strike. But at the end of the Texas longhorns are the ones parting of the desert. As the -- the -- 3121. On the computers at Texas winning it but why -- they need to win. Our rise apartment tells us in the BCS to relegate the possible addition."

" When's the party more than just departed. When it's the fiesta bowl edition of fox sports that count as these -- tailgate. I'm friends -- your host to the parking lot party that pretty much served up they gonna help and of college football that. Let's get this show on the road. I know you must be thinking you college football here as you. I thrill of the CI posted another BCS bowl game. Well you're in luck because here we go again when those sacrificial lambs that was the Buckeyes go fiesta bowl and against the longhorns see what they Texans sized chip on the shoulder. Thank you thank you keep him. Yes another chance to watch Ohio State embarrassed themselves on national TV how we get that lucky. Actually I'd blame the play than not fans for the Sox sandwiched. If you gotta think the only reason the -- in Glendale picked out what you overs -- well just about anybody else. Was because they know half the state of Ohio is going to fly to Arizona and hit up every chain restaurant part of twenty mile radius. But all the booster buck might not be able to save these super young Buckeyes against Texas. Who probably have the best complaints for getting shut out of the BS championship games and they kind of you know did mental one of the teams actually got an invite. But this all boils down to who really doesn't want to lose this game and if Ohio State drops and now they get nine more months of offseason changed. But of tech has loses this one they didn't I'm auditioning for being the team the front loss to Ohio State now let the hilarity ensue. Keep -- log on to foxsports.com. For all your college football -- since the bowl season I'm Ryan temperament Mattingly takes a next."

" A lot of good for this edition of BCS alive you can catch the fiesta bowl January 5 at 8 PM eastern only on fox. And keep a log on the foxsports.com. Later this week we're -- the big national championship game in Miami. I'm Craig -- in next time."
