One of Florida and Alabama will be eliminated, either next weekend or in the SEC Championship game.

 

Which still leaves the big mess which is the B12 to sort out...the friction (along with the OU loses to OSU, TT loses to MO, TX goes to the title game without playing in B12 Championship) will happen with OU and Texas in all likelihood. If both those teams win out for the rest of the season and one's denied a place in the Championship Game, it will be the stuff of (temporary) legend for a long time in Austin or Stillwater. Oklahoma will also argue that while the Cotton Bowl is sort of neutral, it's still a game played in Texas.

 

Then again, it's also possible that Alabama loses this weekend, then beats Florida for the SEC Championship...that's also quite possible.

 

So then you might have USC going without winning the PAC 10.

Um, this crisis can be simply averted.

 

As long as Bama loses, your National Championship is Utah vs. Ball State.

 

Where's my money?

 

On a side note, I wonder what kind of ratings that game would get if it was for all the marbles? Cause it'd be intriguing, that's for damn sure.

Three team tourny between Utah, Boise and Ball State?

UT and OU have played far tougher schedules than the SEC teams by current polls.

UT: beat no 3, lost no 7, beat no 11, beat no 12

OU: lost no 4, beat no 7, beat no 14, beat no 16

ALA: Beat no 13, beat no 25

FL: beat no 13, lost no 25

Strength of schedules not even close!

 

But, but, every team in the SEC can compete on a NFL level.

I thought that was the acc Speaking of, you want to explain to me all the scenarios there in the acc, chimpy? Quite confusing.

Psh, ACC sucks lol.

 

Atlantic

Boston College goes to the ACC Championship Game if they beat Maryland.

or

Florida State goes to the ACC Championship Game if Maryland beats Boston College. (Go Terps!)

 

Coastal

Virgina Tech goes to the ACC Championship Game if they beat Virginia.

or

Georgia Tech goes to the ACC Championship Game if Virginia beats Virginia Tech.

 

Either way, crappy Orange Bowl ensues.

 

 

 

 

Ok, TTU in the championship, this is how...

 

FSU beats Florida

USC loses to Notre Dame

Texas loses to A&M

Oklahoma loses to Oklahoma State

 

Then Texas Tech beats Mizzou in the Big 12 title game

Florida beats Bama in the SEC title game

 

Hey, it can happen.

Alright, get Utah into the title game now.

Man, the Coastal is beyond bad this year. It's painful watching ACC games now, as you know.

I'm going to be the biggest Oregon fan this weekend. If Oregon State wins, they'll be in the Rose Bowl, not USC.

 

My predictions:

Florida vs Texas- BCS title game

Alabama vs Oklahoma- Fiesta Bowl

Florida State vs USC- Sugar Bowl

Oregon State vs Penn State- Rose Bowl

My hopes for the BCS:

 

National Championship:

Florida vs. Oklahoma

 

This should be a great game. These are easily the top 2 teams in the nation, IMO. Both have very good D's with fantastic offenses.

 

Fiesta Bowl:

Texas vs. USC

 

The rematch of the 2006 National Championship-Rose Bowl game. Should be another great game between the two programs. It'll be a whole lot better than seeing USC beat up on the Big Ten once again.

 

Sugar Bowl:

Alabama vs. Utah

 

I think the Sugar Bowl would easily choose Utah over Cincinnati. Utah, while it will likely lose by a couple TD's, should be competitive and make it at least a half-way decent game to watch. Who knows, they might even get the upset over Alabama.

 

Rose Bowl:

Penn St. vs. Oregon St.

 

The only reason why I think/want Oregon St. to win is so I don't have to see USC dominate the Big Ten again. Penn St. is a very solid team, but USC would more than likely steam roll them, and I really want to see a USC-Texas rematch. So, Penn St. will likely dominate this game vs. Oregon St., but maybe some thoughts of revenge will make this game interesting.

 

Orange Bowl:

Georgia Tech/Virginia Tech/Boston College/Florida St. vs. Cincinnati

 

Well this sucks. Cincinnati isn't all that good, and neither are any of the ACC teams. The fact that none of the teams are that good should at least make it at least a close game. I would much prefer watch a game between Ball St. and Boise St., but that's possible.

That trick play for the TD by Uconn was pure perfection. It was also the most ballsy play i've ever seen them run.

Alabama vs. Utah is a bad idea. Alabama would probably run for 250 to 300 yards on Utah, have the ball for 40 minutes, and win easily. Complete physical mismatch.

 

Oklahoma will also argue that while the Cotton Bowl is sort of neutral, it's still a game played in Texas.

 

That would be quite the misguided argument. They sell the tickets 50/50, and even the campuses are almost an identical distance away (Norman is 190 miles from Dallas, Austin is 197 miles). It's as neutral a site for a game as you'll find.

While I disagree that its as neutral as it gets, it isn't much of a Texas advantage and OU should have won that game anyways..

 

but after they demolish Ok St its not gonna matter much because they will go in front of Texas after this next week anyways..

 

Oklahoma's resume is much more impressive than Texas' when its all said an done despite losing to Texas. If they want to have the two best teams play for the National Title at the end of the year, if all continues to go as planned, it should be Florida vs. Oklahoma which would be an outstanding game to watch.

Very interesting article at the Wall Street Journal which says Texas is facing bad karma this year after politicking four years ago to get into the final game over a more deserving CAL team.

Im thinking that the only fair matchup for Utah and Boise is against each other.

Oklahoma agrees with you, I'm sure.

Why does no one believe Alabama is going to be in the National Title game? They are much better than Florida for damn sure.

I also think Alabama is better than Florida. They dominate the line of scrimmage on both sides.

Florida is the best team in college football right now. Hands down.

 

As much as I hate saying it b/c I hate Florida more than any other team in any sport, it's true. They are peaking at the right time. Sure, they could lose to Alabama in the SEC Championship game, just as any team can lose any given saturday. But, Florida is ridiculous right now.
