What team least represents the Bowl they are playing in. Some nominee's include:

Flordia State- 8-4 FedEx Orange Bowl
West Virginia- Winner of Big East Sugar Bowl
Texas Tech- 9-2 Cotton Bowl (2 D-AA opponents)
Fresno State- 8-4 Liberty Bowl stuggled since loss to USC
South Flordia & NC State- Both 6-5 in Mieneke Car Care Bowl
Nebraska- 7-4 Alamo Bowl benefit from Big 12 North Schdule
Colorado- 7-5 Champs Sports Bowl big losses last 2 weeks
Arkansas State- 6-5 before bowl out of Sun Belt 6-6 now.
OTHER

In am going to have to go with Arkansas State. They lost to Army 38-10 other loses include LA Monroe 31-27, and Mid Tenn. St. 45-7. Even though they played So. Miss. well they still did not deserve to be their as much as say a 5-6 Tennessee team but they won their conference and got in.

Im gonna say either S. Florida or N.C. State. I think N. Illinois would be a better team then either of them. It still amazes me that they can leave a 7-5 team out of a bowl game but let numerous 6 win teams in.

Do you still think Florida State least represented their bowl? I don't think so. They played their hearts out and should've won the game. Maybe it was PSU that least represented their bowl playing against the #22 team in the nation.
