Who will win the title game?

Who will win the other BCS bowls?

I have

Florida over Oklahoma
USC over Penn State
Va Tech over Cincinnati
Alabama over Utah
Ohio State over Texas............. I am a homer after all.

Remind me again why the Big10 [sic] got 2 of the 8 BCS slots? Once again they're showing pathetic results when playing outside their own conference: 1-5 so far and 1-6 when Ohio St gets dismanteled by Texas.

Also are there really 10 ACC teams worthly of playing another game?

Something has to be done. This is nuts. Who wouldn't want to see the OK/Fl winner play USC?

I want to see whoever wins play texas...I think they got jipped out of the championship.

Birdman87 · 01-05-2009, 03:59 PM

OSU over Texas?
No way.
Other than that, I have the same picks as you.

elf · 01-05-2009, 07:46 PM

I lost respect for Ohio after Florida destroyed them in the championship.

yustr · 01-05-2009, 10:26 PM

I got it half right - not dismantled but still a loss.

Actually, TX was fortunate to get the win. Good effort Buckeyes.

That's still 1-6 for the B10. Not good.

bry623 · 01-06-2009, 06:01 AM

Agreed. Much better to lose with 20 seconds left in the game than to have lost 20 seconds left in the first half.

elf · 01-06-2009, 08:32 AM

It was a good game...when I left work the score was 17-9 and when I got home it was 17-21. I didn't know what happened.

**forcifer** · 01-06-2009, 06:37 PM

i think OU might be able to pull it out over FL...finally a non b10 school though. the b10's glory days are over for now. i think boise/tcu should have gotten that spot not OSU even though OSU finally showed up to a BCS game. took them about 2-3 tries

RockLee · 01-16-2009, 02:17 PM

I know the games are over but Its all SEC now. 3 Straight BCS National Championships go to the SEC. Its by far the most competitve Conference due mainly to the defense. Big 10 and Big 12 are good offensively but offensive wins games defense wins championships. Would not be surprised if the SEC wins a fourth in a row.

elf · 01-16-2009, 04:49 PM

I agree that the SEC is strong in it's depth, but that does not mean that the best SEC team is better than all the rest. I would have liked to see Florida go up against Texas or even Utah.

RockLee · 01-23-2009, 02:30 PM

I am not a Gator fan ,but I think Florida would have been able to beat either of those 2 teams. Based how teams play and match up against each other I think USC was the team that would match up well against Florida and be able to beat them. Not saying they were the only team because I haven't seen the way every team played but I have seen Utah and Texas and just don't think they could have done it.

elf · 01-23-2009, 04:24 PM

but we'll never know for sure...thats why we need a playoff system of some sort.

RockLee · 01-26-2009, 03:02 PM

Agreed
