For everyone pissed about our cheezeit bowl, take a look at how WVU got royally screwed. They're a team that would've finished 9-3 if one game hadn't been cancelled, and yet they got passed up by the Alamo Bowl for an ISU team with a worse record. Instead of playing 2-loss Wazzu, they get stuck with Syracuse.
To add to that, the committee gave them the middle finger by ranking them below a Texas squad who they beat in Austin and who finished the regular season with the same amount of losses as them. I also think WVU is better than both Florida and Kentucky who are ranked above them, but Florida gets that NY6 bowl game instead thanks to 4 sec teams getting the nod (2 of which were at-large selections and had worse records than Wazzu, they also got shafted).
Not to mention I'd put WVU in the sugar bowl over Texas, but not sure if the sugar bowl had a choice there.
