Final Score: Oklahoma 35, Arkansas The Razorbacks defense comes back to bite them, and the Sooners defense does just enough to snag the win. But they'll get demolished by Nebraska for the second time in the Big 12 title game, relegating them to runner-up. Final Score: Oklahoma State 42, Arizona A shootout, and a thriller until the last moments. Why South Carolina Is Here: The Gamecocks have followed every big win with a loss in , and look like a solid fourth- or fifth-best team in the conference.
If Miami doesn't get their act together, they'll finish third, behind Florida State and Virginia Tech. Stephen Garcia and the Gamecocks have more than enough firepower to dispatch the 'Canes. But we'll stick them third for now. If they get it, Florida is Outback bound. Third is more or less Florida's limit, unless they can pull the upset in the SEC title game. Final Score: Iowa 27, Florida A classic, as Stanzi leads the Hawkeyes to an excellent win.
If Alabama loses another game this season, they'll slide even further down the SEC standings. Final Score: Alabama 17, Ohio State Nothing like a defensive showdown to get the blood pumping. Virginia Tech hasn't clinched the ACC title just yet. The Horned Frogs state their final case for a split national title. If Boise missteps, they can kiss their BCS hopes goodbye.
The Broncos are the better team here, and they'll prove it. The Rose Bowl historically pits the Big Ten champ against the Pac champ, but this year, the game sees an at-large bid in the Pac spot. I like the Warriors though because they have the nation's No. This game certainly won't be everyone's cup of tea, but it does feature the nation's top two rushing attacks.
NC State has a nice passing attack, led by Russell Wilson, but the Wolfpack will struggle to put points on the board in this one. West Virginia has the nation's No. Iowa has lost three straight games and averaged just 19 point over its last four contests. East Carolina scores a ton of points, but the Pirates have lost four of their last five games. Oh yeah, they also rank th in points allowed at This game won't really feature too much defense, so it's all about which team steps up with a better offensive performance.
I think Baylor's waited too long to get here to leave this game with anything but a victory. Army has the nation's No. Sorry, Syracuse, but I'm not really expecting any Big East teams to win their bowl games this year.
North Carolina hasn't looked great all season, but Derek Dooley's Tennessee Team is hot right now — the Volunteers have won four straight games. If Washington doesn't have Jake Locker, the Huskies probably aren't even in this game. Florida International vs. Toledo is their usual self and will display an offensive power in this game.
Florida International is a question of whether or not they should be in a bowl game. They lost some really bad games. I've seen it argued both ways, but I do know they will lose horribly bad. Toledo is a decent enough team with an identity. They will throw it around and play solid defense because they played a tough schedule. Toledo wins Air Force vs. Georgia Tech Air Force favored by 2. This will be a very high quality game with two very good teams. Air Force will play a great mix it up offense and Georgia Tech has an ability to run with that option that Air Force saw at Navy for years so it will be a good contest.
This game will come down to defense and I think that Air Force will be outmatched on that end of the field by Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech has played a higher quality opponent in conference play this year and they will win in a close one West Virginia vs. NC State West Va. West Virginia can play very good and can play very bad. This game depends on which WV shows up.
State is a steady team who will mix the run and pass. They can definately spread the ball if they need to and they have a good solid defense. West Virginia's quarterback is really good and diverse. He can run, but mostly pass the ball around accurately and use his vision. The defense needs to play the right way and they need to play the way they have been coached.
They should win this game. West Virginia wins Missouri vs. Iowa Missou favored by 1 Missouri will be coming in with a record out of the Big 12 and Iowa comes from the Big Ten with as their record. This will be a good game with two really good offenses who can explode with quarterback play as well as other game changers.
These teams can light you up on the offensive end, but can also play a bit of defensive. These teams are really going to put up a fight. I've watched them quite a bit this season and while they can throw up a high score they're not afraid to battle. This game is going to be awesome.
This will be a true man's game. Break out the chips fellas, it's time to watch a really good game. This one goes into OT in favor of Missouri. East Carolina vs. Maryland MD favored by 7. East Carolina can run the ball and has a good quarterback.
Maryland is a team coming back from a bad year last year. They have a great coach. They have the experience there and will win because of that. Maryland can play in all aspects of the game and played a tougher schedule with more success. That tells a lot, but just the eye test tells me they're better.
Maryland wins Illinois vs. Baylor Baylor favored by 2 Illinois comes out of the Big Ten with a record and clashes with Baylor who finished in the Big Baylor and Illinois will be an offensive shootout that Baylor will win. Baylor has a high octane offense powered by their quarterback and even driven by a great running back. They have good receivers as well. They're not bad on defense, but for now their best defense is a good offense.
As long as the ball is in that quarterback's hands they are good. The Illinois offense is on it's way to being that good, but they're not quite there yet. They will get there though. They don't have the athletes on defense to stop Baylor. Baylor wins Oklahoma State vs.
Arizona Ok. State by 6 Oklahoma State comes out of the Big 12 with a strong record. Arizona will be into this game with a record out of the Pac Oklahoma State is as good as any team in the country on any given day. Their timing is horrible. They can play with anyone. I think Arizona is solid, but they got a bad match-up.
Oklahoma State has an awesome wide receiver and a great quarterback to get him that ball. Their offense is better than you could imagine and when their defense is playing right they could play with the big boys. They are explosive and could really challenge over the next few years. They are going to blow this team out.
Oklahoma Stat wins Army vs. I would like to say this game will be close, but I don't think so. Jones has already got this SMU team to play his way and it's starting to work. The run and shoot is alive and well. It's going to go all over Army who just won't have the team to keep up.
Army is a fine team with good men and I hope they enjoy the expierience. SMU rolls Kansas State vs. Syracuse K. State by 2. Syracuse is going to make this team look silly.
Syracuse has a weak offense, but Kansas State will not be able to move the ball on the 'Cuse. So its a total mismatch on paper Sorry, it's actually goint to be a sleeper on the field too Judging by the Longhorn's offensive struggles against Nebraska's defense, also named Ndamukong Suh, which saw them give up 4.
On the other side, Texas' defense, while not awful like Oklahoma's unit last year, is hardly as capable as Florida's even without Dunlap and the Tide should run Ingram down their throats and then thrive off the run-fake pass to a runaway victory.
Honestly, it's just too bad the BCS whose greed is well known decided not to arrange a meeting between Bama and TCU's incredible defense.
People often refer to that as "the game that changed the south. Second, the game will also mark a match-up between two of the three top heisman candidates this year: RB Mark Ingram of Alabama who won the Heisman Trophy as the best player in college football and QB Colt McCoy of Texas who came in 3rd and came in 2d in This years BCS Championship Game will break the tie and vault one conference or the other to the top.
Finally, if you are wondering about the all-time Texas vs Alabama, head-to-head record -- it's not good for Bama fans. But could be the biggest Alabama - Texas matchup ever. And, we have a wealth of comparison information about the two teams at Alabama vs Texas Statistics.
It will be an interesting and historic game for sure. By the way, the game is also huge for Florida and the SEC as far as final rankings go. The SEC could end up with the 1 and 2 ranked teams. Not sure if that has ever happened before. See Florida Should Be Ranked 2. If you submit them here, other visitors can read them, rate them and comment on them.
