Yeah, um, not so fast. See update below.
Mission accomplished, El Full Mexicans.
After all the wishing, wondering, and worrying, it looks like the bowl situation is going to play out just like we deep down thought it would during these last few weeks. Iowa is, by all accounts, a done deal for the Fiesta Bowl; there's no similar confirmation for the opponent, but everyone assumes it'll be Boise State, which, okay.
Here's a roundup of the news as we're seeing it right now:
Fiesta is Spanish for "party."
Also from Morehouse, but yesterday:
Iowa is pulling out the stops to impress the Fiesta Bowl committee. According to a source, Iowa has sold 17,500 Fiesta Bowl tickets. That’s the entire allotment. That’s has to impress Fiesta reps and calm fears that Iowa’s entire bowl representation would be Iowans now living in Arizona. (Fears from the greater Phoenix chamber of commerce.)
Jerry Palm just called to say that a source out east told him Iowa to Fiesta, done deal. No confirmation yet.
Penn State sources just in the last few minutes have begun saying that they believe Iowa is headed for the Fiesta Bowl. That means PSU is headed for Orlando and the Capital One Bowl, very likely against Louisiana State.
The Fiesta Bowl committee was scheduled to begin deliberations only at 2 p.m. EST so a consensus must have been reached prior that Penn State was out of its picture.
Go to womens game vs. Wolerines & watch BCS Selection Show at CHA immediately after per Iowa SID. Great opp to watch w/ fellow fans.
Obviously, nothing's set until the announcement this evening, but unless the Fiesta Bowl's pulling an inexplicable fast one on everybody involved, it might be time to book your tickets to Puh-ho-nix. And unless you're one of the 17,500 people who bought through the school, good luck getting good tickets.
Also, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
[UPDATE: Okay, now there's a lot more chatter seeping in from People Who'd Know that it's shaping up to be Iowa in the Orange Bowl, not the Fiesta Bowl. So... yeah. Stay tuned. Seriously, though, if the Fiesta takes TCU or Boise over Iowa, they're insane.]
[DOUBLE UPDATE: It's official: Iowa to the Orange Bowl, per the Tampa I-Club. So yeah.]

Let me put it this way:
I can get from New York to Florida for a lot less than it costs to go to Phoenix.

yep. about $125 less
and hotels in south beach are real cheap.

orlando at x-mas time is cheaper yet.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
Well
I have an uncle in Orlando, and actually some family down in Boca (Jewish grandparents, natch) so that helps as well.

I hear ya
tickets are cheaper too to the game

Amtrak

$ 396.50
Departs 9:35 AM on 12/31/09

this place smells like feet. i’ll bring a can of lysol next week.
I can fly for cheaper
If the Fiesta Bowl was in Orlando, and the Capital One Bowl in Phoenix, I’d be pissed. As it is, I kinda prefer this arrangement. Especially since I know we’ll beat up on LSU. Boise might be tough. Win one for the conference, will ya?

My buddy who works for a major bank in Arizona
just called me to say the same thing. Iowa in Fiesta. Lock it in. He did not know the opponent but he said the Sugar confirmed Florida and then Fiesta decided on Iowa. No one yet knows who Orange will take. I am betting they take Cinncy or TCU. So expect TCU or Cinncy to be in the Fiesta…I really think that is how it will go. But, you never know.

Oh, the banks has a guy whose is a trustee of the bowl

You don’t get a full cut if you’re the second team from the conference.

You think Orange would prefer GaTech/Boise to GaTech/TCU?

GTech winning was great, i think i read that Clemson played TCU earlier in the year &
the Orange Bowl didn’t want a rematch of a regular season game.

So, the rumors of a TCU-Boise Fiesta
were just the media talking out of their ass again? I’m shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YOU, that they could get it so wrong.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Eh
There’s a theory that the Fiesta leaked it to get the publics reaction. I would buy such theory.

Didn't TCU/Boise State play in a bowl last year?
Who would want to see that again?

Well, since no one watched it then
I’m guessing ELEVENS of peoples would want to watch it this year! This was the part that truly made no sense to me (when the rumor was being spread around): ESPN/CBS were trying to talk it up like this matchup would be a ratings bonanza, an assertion not backed by any known fact, and refuted by the limited data we had.

I'd take Penn State - 10.5 over LSU right now
this place smells like feet. i’ll bring a can of lysol next week.
Hell yes
I mean, I would have been happy with BCS regardless, but I HATE how we match-up with Georgia Tech. Not that they’re necessarily a significantly better overall team, but a run heavy team that isn’t going to try to test our amazing secondary too often doesn’t play intot the D’s strength at all. Much happier playing Boise.
Well, I've wanted PSU to get the bid
but I never did think we necessarily deserved it over Iowa. Congrats you asshats.
BSD
I don't want Boise
because beating them gets you the old, “of course” and losing to them gets you the old “you frauds” lable. would much prefer Cinncy or even TCU. Which means, we’ll probably get Boise.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
Of course
we’ll probably have best chance of beating Boise…so there’s that. That WR for Cinncy is nasty and we can’t cover kicks or control kick offs.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
Pitt is painful to watch
you know the collapse is coming and you can’t get out of the way.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
the wr is nasty but
the punter for Pitt punts low and no hang time. He had tons of room to make a move. Donahue would put our special teams in a better postition to contain him. In my humble opinion. I’d really like to meet up with some of you if it really is the Fiesta. Go Hawks!

Capital One Bowl selection is at 4 PM CST. Hopefully that will settle the Iowa vs. PSU to a BCS Bowl debate that has been raging all day.

No
That selection won’t be announced until after BCS bowls have gone public… there’s some clause about that and Capital One would probably owe a lot of money if that got out.
I Don't Think That's Accurate
Per the Capital One Bowl’s Website:
Orlando Bowl Team Announcements Scheduled For 5:00-7:00 p.m. Sunday
Florida Citrus Sports will announce what teams will square off in the 2009 Champs Sports Bowl and 2010 Capital One Bowl this Sunday, December 6, as part of a special Selection Sunday event at Wall Street Plaza in Downtown Orlando. The event begins at 5:00 p.m. and is free and open to the public.
The time for this announcement wraps up an hour before the BCS Selection show. Here’s the link.
Obviously, this doesn’t mean that we’ll know what BCS bowl the Big Televen’s At Large Berth is going to.

Thanks
For that link Kevin. The way I read the Cap One website, it sounded like the announcement would come between 5 and 7. However, I’m now dreading the fact that I’ll have to wait until 7 CST to see who’s going to be the lucky team.

Which set up the awkward Super Bowl where Shanahan beat the guy he replaced.

I think this is because the SEC fans were pissed that Auburn got picked ahead of UGA and UT, so this is settling the score.

In 100 years, we'll all be dead.

Had I waited about 10 seconds I would not be enjoying the taste of sock right now.

Orange or Fiesta
Okay I am just worn out from worry. I want the Fiesta for personal reasons but I want Iowa in a BCS bowl no matter where it is. I just want Iowa to crush whoever they play. So I guess it comes down to this FUCK YOU WE ARE IOWA!
Fuck it...

I actually went to the site to check
before I realized that there’s no way they’d put that picture up on the main FCS website.
You, sir, are a bastard. A glorious, glorious bastard with some wicked ’shop skills.
Eh
I needed something to do while I’m awaiting the BCS Selection Show. Lord knows watching the Cowboys game is about as entertaining as watching corn grow in July.
