With UConn hanging on and VaTech winning, I\'m betting the Orange Bowl will take Stanford rather than the Huskies, since they pick first.  Might not have as big a traveling group, but a much more marketable matchup than an offensively challenged UConn.

But it would make more geographical sense if the Orange Bowl took UConn. Stanford is a good 3,000 miles from Miami where UConn is only 1,500 miles. I would bet that there would be A LOT more Stanford fans in Glendale, instead of much less numbers in Miami. So the Orange Bowl would probably lose money if they took Stanford since we are so far out west. More UConn fans would travel to Miami and more Stanford fans would travel to Glendale, and I\'m one of them.
