Texas vs. Alabama

Florida vs Oklahoma

Looks like "Big Game Bob" might get another chance to work his BCS magic.

It's a shame Penn St. has to pay for the sins of Ohio State. After the way they kicked the crap out of Ore St. and beat OSU in the horseshoe their ranking in the BCS is crap.

( I know I know, I'll go ahead and say it, don't lose to Iowa)

Don't lose to Iowa...sorry, had to say it. Of course Penn St. should be playing for the Big 10s honor considering they should be playing USC at Pasadena. Beat that Trojan defense and no one will be giving crap about the weak Big 10, Ohio St against SEC, etc. Of course getting drilled by USC...could be another bad off season for the Big 10.

My guess is Oklahoma vs. Florida. What a game it "should" be to.

Yeah, got a feeling looking at some potential match-ups that it might be another tough one for the Big10

Alabama vs Oklahoma and we'll once again get to see the sooners choke in a BCS game. It's a yearly tradition now days. Now for my rant. If Florida wins I don't see why they deserve a shot at the national championship over Texas or Oklahoma who both lost to top 5 teams on the road and Florida lost to an unranked Ole Miss at home. Just because you play well late in the season shouldn't mean anything. If you can't beat the teams you're supposed to, you shouldn't get a shot at all. For the BCS to work, teams should be penalized more points for losing to unranked teams in their conference. This would eleviate a lot of problems. So basically a loss to Ole Miss, Oregon State or Iowa counts as 2 losses in the BCS standings but only 1 on their record so teams can still push for conference titles and what not. This is a true method that will allow strength of schedule to actually mean something. And as big of a fan as I am of the SEC, the quality is not there like it was last year (Auburn, Tennesse, LSU and Georgia this statement applies to all of you). Same rule applies for Penn State and USC. The best teams should play. I wonder what Urban Meyer thinks about a 12-0 Utah team now? You think he's complaining about the BCS today? My how things have changed.

I am going to say that OU plays TU for the title. Alabama loses to Florida in SEC title game and stays behind TU by just enough.

Man if that happens I hope you're right but unfortunately there are a lot of gator loving voters out there right now but I think Mr. Saban will have his troops ready. Roll Tide, i hate the gators.

Utah vs Boise State

Phishful Thinking · 12-02-2008, 11:57 AM

I HATE the Gators, but I think they will win the SEC. So it's looking like Oklahoma vs. Florida in my opinion... hope Okie knuckle-heads don't choke this time...

I don't think there's anyway the pollsters and the computers aren't going to put the Gators in the NC game if they beat the #1...UNDEFEATED...team in the nation. Just isn't going to happen.

Where this could get screwy and even more controversial is what if Oklahoma kills Mizzou...than plays Florida/Alabama for NC game and wins big. Than Texas plays whoever really good team Alabama/Ohio State in another BCS game and wins big. So now u have the team (Oklahoma) that just defeated let's say Florida (who in-turn defeated #1 Alabama in the SEC Champ game,) and then there's Texas who throttled whomever in their BCS game; who, in-turn was the only team that defeated Oklahoma. Who's #1?
