college football national championship

Ordinarily we would do a preview of the upcoming Alabama game here at RBR. But since the Crimson Tide is off this week obviously Idle U doesn't merit a preview. Nevertheless. I imagine that you like me will be watching a lot of college football this weekend so instead of the preview the following is an article of five games you should follow this Saturday and the reasons why you should pay particularly close attention to those contests. Perhaps the only team that gets as much hatred in the Southeast as USC is the Ohio State Buckeyes. And yeah I know they suck they haven't played anybody blah blah blah. Now putting all of that crap aside the Buckeyes are currently 8-0 and are in very good shape. The offense is pretty average but the Buckeye defense is something truly special. Coming into the year all we heard about was how great the LSU defense was going to be but in reality the defense that we should have been talking about was the one in Columbus. At the moment. Ohio State is number one in the country in both total defense and scoring defense and lead in both categories by substantial margins. And it hasn't come just against terrible offenses either. Purdue came in as one of the top offenses in the nation and Ohio State held them scoreless until Purdue finally got on the board with a touchdown pass with ten seconds left in the game against the OSU scrubs. And last week Michigan State came into Columbus as one of the best offenses in the country averaging over 36 points per game. But when they ran up against the Ohio State defense they scored a mere three points and had only nine first downs all day. All told through eight games only once has the Ohio State defense allowed more than seven points (allowed 14 against Washington). From the looks of things this defense could be one of the best we've seen in ages. Penn State on the other hand is no slouch. Joe Pa's Nittany Lions are currently 6-2 and the two losses have been very close losses on the road against good opponents (14-9 loss to Michigan in Ann Arbor and 27-20 loss to Illinois in Champaign). The Penn State offense hasn't been particularly good and that's a major concern considering the prowess of the Ohio State defense but their defense has been stout in their own right and they've made some big plays on special teams too. All in all this is a tough test for Ohio State. The last time the Buckeyes lost in the regular season was a night game in 2005 against Penn State in Happy Valley and now they are headed back into Happy Valley for another night game against Penn State. This is likely to be a tough physical defensive struggle and it has the makings of a very good game. For Ohio State the game is simply massive. You can bash them all you want but a win here and they move to 9-0 and you have to figure that if they can beat Penn State in Happy Valley they will be able to beat Wisconsin and Illinois the following two weeks in Columbus. That could put the Buckeyes at 11-0 and just needing a win over Michigan -- something that has never been a problem under Tressel -- to make their second BCS title game in a row. Bottom line: This game has major national championship implications pay close attention. The game kicks off from Happy Valley at 7:00 on ABC. Though neither of these two teams are leading the Pac-10 at the moment the winner of this game is most likely the favorite to actually end up as Pac-10 champions and they will get the guaranteed BCS bid that goes along with the conference championship trophy. Moreover the game has both national championship and Heisman implications. In terms of the national championship race. USC's title hopes aren't dead yet but they are very much on life support. And most likely the same goes for the Oregon Ducks as well. At the moment it seems slightly probable that one team goes undefeated and one team with one loss plays for the national championship in the Superdome. LSU however is the easy favorite to be the one loss team and as long as a single one loss team gets into the title game it will be LSU and not USC or Oregon. But in this wild and wacky college football season anything can happen and LSU could very well lose another game and we may indeed have two one loss teams in the national title game. If either of those two things happen then the winner of the USC v. Oregon game is then very likely to get in the national championship game. So obviously the game has national championship implications. The game also has major Heisman Trophy implications as mentioned earlier. Oregon quarterback Dennis Dixon has been nothing short amazing thus far this year as he is fourth in the country in QB rating while completing approximately 70% of his passes for 16 touchdowns against just 3 interceptions. Moreover he's a definite dual threat with over 400 yards rushing and averaging around six yards per carry on the ground. The problem however is that he probably hasn't gotten the national exposure he needs but that will change tomorrow with a nationally televised showdown with USC. If Dixon has a big day against the Trojans he likely becomes the Heisman front-runner. All in all it's just a huge game. It has everything you could ever want in a football game. Conference championship implications national championship implications. Heisman implications.. you name it and it's all here. There is arguably no bigger surprise this year than 7-0 Arizona State. The Sun Devils are one year removed from a 7-6 record and a fired head coach and now Dennis Erickson has his new team in the top five. But the problem is that they really haven't played anyone to date. Through seven games they've only beaten one team with a winning record and that was when they knocked off 4-3 Oregon State at home when they rallied from a 19-0 first half deficit with 17 points in the fourth quarter to win it. But all of that is about to change with the next four weeks bringing Cal. Oregon. UCLA and USC. The harsh truth is that these guys most likely aren't that good but they are undefeated and in the top five. If these guys somehow play great football over the last five weeks they could very well make the BCS title game. Yes they are currently below one-loss LSU in the BCS standings but if they can remain undefeated by knocking off some of the high-quality teams that they will face over the next months they will easily pass the Bayou Bengals in the BCS standings. All of that though is a big if. Cal is coming off of a two-game losing streak and they desperately need a win. They can still win the Pac-10 and get themselves in a BCS bowl game but they have to win out and have Oregon drop a game somewhere along the line for that to happen. The two major obstacles -- Arizona State and USC -- are looming. Obviously they must start it here if they want to regain the lost luster. As you've probably noticed if you watched these two squads over the first eight weeks of the season neither are particularly good football teams. The Vols are now a mere shell of their glory days of the Fat One in the late 90's and the Gamecocks are no better than just decent even in Spurrier's third year in Columbia. To begin with the Ol' Ball Coach's offenses aren't what they used to be. At Florida in the mid-1990's his teams had a three-year stretch where they averaged 500+ points per season but those days have long since faded. That powerhouse slowed in Spurrier's later years at Florida and what he has won in Columbia has come on the heels of mediocre-at-best offense and good defense. All of this was highlighted last week when the Gamecocks put up a mere six points at home against Vanderbilt. And now it seems that Spurrier may be turning to the third-team quarterback and things are getting crazy. On the other hand defensively the Vols aren't very good. And on the opposite side of the ball we have just the reverse. Tennessee is very good on offense and the Gamecocks sport a good defense. Beyond that this is a must-win game for both squads if either want to have any chance of winning the East or making a decent bowl game. For the Tennessee Volunteers though this is likely an even bigger game. A loss here does much more than eliminate themselves from the East it also puts their season on the brink of a sheer and utter collapse. They come into this game with three losses and a loss to South Carolina will give them four losses with games remaining against Arkansas. Vanderbilt and Kentucky. A loss here and it could be 2005 all over again. This isn't the best game of the day by any stretch but it does have some divisional race and bowl game implications and it could be the beginning of the collapse for the Vols. Plus hell let's be honest it's worth watching just to see if the latter comes to fruition. And SOS has always found so cruel yet enjoyable ways to rain on Tennessee's parade -- like two years in Knoxville when he ripped their hearts out of the Vols on Peyton Manning Appreciation Night when they retired his collegiate number; ah fond memories anyway moving on... -- and that's just more added entertainment value. The World's Largest Cocktail Party or at least the game that used to be called that before the PC crowd got a simple football game in their cross-hairs is your typical big game as has been usual in the Florida / Georgia rivalry. Both teams come in ranked and it has a lot of implications. Georgia comes into this game as a bit of a disappointment. A lot of people thought they would take off this year but after losses to South Carolina and Tennessee combined with a narrow victory over Vanderbilt things just haven't gone as hoped. They are still alive in the SEC East but Saturday is a must-win game for them if they want to remain in contention and even if they can somehow knock off the Gators their hopes are still cloudy at best. On the other hand a loss here and a best-case scenario is likely another berth in the Peach Bowl. Florida on the other hand has really surprised people. They annihilated Tennessee and though they dropped a couple of games mid-season they look to be in good shape. They are currently tied atop the SEC East with tiebreakers over Tennessee and Kentucky and with that in mind they are relatively heavy favorites over both Georgia and South Carolina. These guys had LSU beat on the road in Tiger Stadium after leading for 59 minutes but ultimately two fourth quarter turnovers doomed them. Rest assured that these guys have revenge on their mind and they will be playing hard to get back to Atlanta for a chance to exact just that. And yes. Florida has dominated this rivalry since Dooley stepped down in Athens winning 15 of the last 17 and 8 of the last 9. But don't let that fool you into thinking that this is usually a boring game. Yes that was true during the days of Ray Goof and much of Jim Donnan's tenure but since Mark Richt has arrived in Athens things have generally been close. He hasn't had much luck knocking off the Gators but he's kept it very close. The last five Georgia v. Florida games have been decided by one touchdown or less and you should most likely expect another close tomorrow afternoon. So all in all it's a pretty meaningful game. And beyond that it's one of the Deep South's best rivalries it has a lot on the line there are a lot of talented players and two very good coaching staffs. If nothing more it should be a good tough physical football game that comes right down to the end.

While planning a trip to Blacksburg. Va. for Thursday night's big ACC showdown between Boston College and Virginia Tech. I stopped to read and answer e-mail. Here are some opinions on whether West Virginia can reach the BCS championship game who may be Nebraska's next coach what team ordain win the Big Ten what it will take for Texas to return to national prominence and whether LSU is vulnerable against Alabama. It's not out of the question but West Virginia has to win the rest of its games and get some help. West Virginia is seventh in the BCS standings and has a respectable schedule remaining that includes games against Rutgers (5-2). Cincinnati (6-2) and Connecticut (6-1). But what the Mountaineers really need is for at least five teams ranked ahead of them to lose. Here's a rundown of the schedules for the teams ranked ahead of West Virginia in the BCS standings. Keep in mind this was written before Thursday night's game between Boston College and Virginia Tech: 1. Ohio State (8-0) (.9759 BCS average) – at Penn State (6-2) vs. Wisconsin (6-2) vs. Illinois (5-3) at Michigan (6-2).2. Boston College (7-0) (.9501 BCS average) – at Virginia Tech (6-1) vs. Florida State (4-3) at Maryland (4-3) at Clemson (5-2) vs. Miami (5-3). ACC championship game if it gets that far.3. LSU (7-1) (.9114 BCS average) – at Alabama (6-2) vs. Louisiana Tech (2-5) at Ole Miss (2-6) vs. Arkansas (4-3). SEC championship bet if it gets that far.4. Arizona State (7-0) (.7629 BCS add up) – vs. California (5-2) at Oregon (6-1) at UCLA (5-2) vs. USC (6-1) vs. Arizona (2-6).5. Oregon (6-1) (.7623 BCS average) – vs. USC (6-1) vs. Arizona State (7-0) at Arizona (2-6) at UCLA (5-2) vs. Oregon State (4-3).6. Oklahoma (7-1) (.7551 BCS average) – vs. Texas A&M (6-2) vs. Baylor (3-5) at Texas Tech (6-2) vs. Oklahoma State (5-3). Big 12 championship game if it gets that far. There will be a lot of positioning in the coming weeks and teams ranked behind West Virginia certainly could make moves. There are too many scenarios left to definitely say what it would take for West Virginia to be in New Orleans. Again though unless the Mountaineers win out they won't have a come about. What are Michigan's chances of beating Ohio State and winning the Big Ten championship? And where do you see Michigan ranked at the end of the season? It looks as if Michigan has a good chance to break that losing streak to the Buckeyes. The Wolverines have bounced back nicely from their horrific start and undergo won despite injuries. If they can get healthy – in particular – they will make a strong push for the conference championship. Michigan and Ohio express are 4-0 in the Big Ten race and the Wolverines already have victories over four of the next five teams in the standings. Also the Wolverines appear to have an easier remaining schedule. Their next three opponents – Minnesota. Michigan State and Wisconsin – are a combined 12-12. Ohio State's next three opponents – Penn State. Wisconsin and Illinois – are a combined 17-7. This season's Michigan-Ohio express game is in Ann Arbor which gives Michigan an edge. In addition. Ohio State doesn't use the spread offense that gave Michigan trouble early. Michigan is ranked 19th in the AP poll. If the Wolverines can win the be of their games they should climb into the top 10. They may even reach the top five if they win the Rose Bowl because there probably will be so few unbeaten and once-beaten teams this season. The Huskers can't fool around with this hire and have to get a proven winner. I'd be at the NFL and perhaps sight a coach who has Super Bowl undergo.. oh wait maybe that's not such a good idea. (Hey. Huskers fans: If you don't undergo a sense of humor how are you going to get through the rest of this season?) Remember. Tom Osborne said he might not make a change. But that's just a nice guy being nice. I'm sure LSU defensive coordinator who used to be defensive coordinator at Nebraska will be mentioned. A proven coach like Wake Forest's may be brought up too. Cincinnati's has great credentials as well. cow's a former Nebraska play would be a great sentimental choice but he hasn't been successful enough - though Buffalo doesn't offer much chance for success. Hey. Nebraska was interested in a few years ago. He might be available. Funny: At some places being ranked 17th is prominent. Of course. Texas has higher aspirations especially considering just two years ago the Longhorns ended a 35-year wait and won the national championship. I'm assuming the question is when the Longhorns contend for a national championship again. That might depend on how they finish this toughen. If they continue to show improvement as they did in a hard-fought loss to Oklahoma the Longhorns could come back next season and be a championship contender if a few things happen. If some young defensive players who were highly coveted recruits reach their vast potential that would help. UT would also need a dependable tailback to appear to bolster the running bet. could have been that guy. He should've been that guy. But you wonder if he has the heart and you experience he doesn't have the hands - as witnessed by his fumbling problems. Yet even if Charles and the young defensive players perform to their ability based on players that probably will return. Oklahoma likely still ordain be favored in the Big 12 in 2008. always recruits well and he has a state full of talent from which to recruit. That means there is always the possibility of a quick "turnaround." So much goes into winning a national championship – talent chemistry health luck – that it's obviously hard to predict an eventual winner. Heck we all thought USC and LSU were the best teams and neither may make it to the BCS Championship Game this season. Appalachian State beat Michigan. Stanford beat USC. So yes in this bizarre season Alabama can beat LSU. And that probably would require Wilson and Hall to have big games. It's going to be an emotional game and playing in Tuscaloosa certainly will help the Tide. LSU's defense has been vulnerable of late having allowed at least 24 points in each of its past three games. Alabama meanwhile has shown the ability to score. If LSU's defense plays up to its ability the Tigers should win comfortably. But if that defense continues to underachieve like it has in recent weeks. Alabama has a chance. But I'll still take LSU. Alabama's Shaun Alexander scored an SEC-record 24 touchdowns in 1999. Florida quarterback Danny Wuerffel holds the record for touchdown responsibility with 41 in 1996 (two rushing. 39 passing).

With the final leg of the regular season on the horizon several college teams comfort be in the hunt for the spot in the BCS. But as it has been proven time and measure again you can't script October—just ask Florida and LSU. This is a showdown between two teams who will likely play for the ACC Championship. A win for BC definitely improves their chances of being the first ACC team to play for the BCS title. For Virginia Tech a win puts them in the same running for the same two titles. This ordain be a slugfest mainly because of what's at stake—a trip to Miami and a ticket to the BCS. This ordain determine if Boston College is really legit or just wasting our time. The Buckeyes undergo had a relatively easy plan up to this point. That will stop this weekend. Up to this point. Penn State has looked more determined than the Buckeyes. After some heartbreaking losses earlier in the season the Lions have bounced approve into contention. With only a few games left on the schedule every game matters for undefeated Ohio State. The Buckeyes undergo added pressure to win due to the fact that LSU has the pass off and a loss by Ohio State will most likely propel the Tigers back to the top spot. After Rutgers defeat South Florida last week anything's possible. Rest assured that every team that isn't playing at this moment will be watching this game. Unfortunately that won't be the case this pass but these two titans will approach each other nevertheless. Since the Pac-10 doesn't have the guts to have a conference championship this is as close as we will get to playoff-level football on the West Coast. In any event. Dennis Dixon has been phenomenal in leading the Ducks to this point. Southern Cal could possibly experience their back up loss in this game. The Trojans have so many problems internally that it wouldn't be surprising to see USC fall before their showdowns with Cal and UCLA. This game may cause who will act the Pac-10 crown. And since I'm not a betting man but an upset-minded man. I'm taking the team that no one sees coming. The Gators may be out of the national championship go but they are not eliminated from the SEC Championship. A win over Georgia would certainly work in Florida's advance. Let's not forget that the Gators undergo yet to suffer to a compete in the Urban Meyer era and that includes Georgia. The Bulldogs have been one of those under-the-radar teams and it's worked to their favor. Now the 'Dogs find themselves in the thick of the conference go. The winner of this game ordain most likely put pressure not only on the division leaders but also on "top dog" LSU. evaluate Tim Tebow's bring up to be ready by game time and expect the Gators to end the job. South Florida suffers their first loss to a dangerous Rutgers team and gets knocked out of the Top 10? That's just plain dumb. LSU lost to Kentucky and comfort held a Top 10 spot. The BCS' intend to have the Pac-10 and Big Ten conflict for the BCS Championship failed and it kills them. Back in reality this game is shockingly a possible Big East Championship showdown. While South Florida was riding their Cinderella gesticulate. UConn was winning roll games and keeping pace with the rest of the conference. The loser of this game is most likely out of the capture but the winner is set to battle for a conference championship. Two straight losses later. Cal is hoping that both Oregon and USC will suffer again before all is said and done. But Cal can't be happy about this matchup with undefeated Arizona express. The measure time the Sun Devils were this good. Jake Plummer was their play and Florida was beating up on Florida State for their first national championship. ASU will win this one and most likely lay affirm to the Pac-10 Championship. That is if they can act momentum on their side. At the beginning of the season this was supposed to be a catch of the Big East Championship. Now it's just a chance for one team to go away campaigning and another to try to salvage something positive from the season. The Mountaineers and Scarlet Knights will be playing for more than experience. They are out to prove that there are BCS contenders in the Big East Conference. What a perfect bet to showcase that theory. In all honesty with the way that West Virginia. Rutgers. UConn and South Florida have been playing this season it's no longer a theory. This should be a good one. Nice previews Ron. I guess the Pac-10 has no conference championship to save their energy for the roll games.. who knows they've always done things their own way. I think Cal can bound back to defeat ASU and Oregon ordain lay on the line its claim to the top spot in the Pac-10. I also accept that South Florida dropped a long way for that loss but I guess voters were waiting for a cerebrate to cut them drink to size.

That's right. For the measure month. I've been screaming from the rooftops that the polls—the same polls that have purists pulling out their (considerably grayer) hair—will look exactly as they should once the dust settles. Boston College and Ohio State the top two teams in the BCS approach stiff road tests this week. Don't be surprised if the national championship picture is 100 percent different by the end of the weekend. Losses at Virginia Tech and at Penn State won't kill the Eagles and Buckeyes but would certainly knock them from the top of the pedestal. BC on the other transfer will see its days of beating up on inferior competition come to an end with tough games in each of the final five weeks of the season. This means that LSU and Arizona State would occupy the top two spots in the BCS standings—if the Sun Devils can survive a tough test from a battered Cal team on Saturday. ASU has racked up an undefeated record against a cupcake schedule much desire BC and THE Ohio express University and will now face the top of the Pac-10 in the next month. The Sooners' plan is a cakewalk the rest of the way so it's entirely conceivable that Oklahoma and LSU could cater to decide the championship. Also lurking are West Virginia and Virginia Tech two teams that were near the top of everybody's list at the start of the campaign. My conclusion is that all the craziness ordain cancel itself out and there will be a relatively normal—dare I say predictable—BCS Championship Game at the end of the year. Who would've thought the the second-ranked team in America would lose in three consecutive weeks? Who would have thought Appalachian State and Stanford would defeat top-five teams? - In its last three visits to Happy Valley. Ohio State is 1-2 with the lone W coming on a late touchdown pass in a 21-20 victory. The top two defenses in the Big Ten will go at it in this one so don't be surprised if the lone touchdown is by Penn State's Derrick Williams on special teams. - Boston College has played zero opponents ranked in the Top 25; Virginia Tech has won six straight home games on Thursday nights. Uh-oh. - Arizona State faces its first real evaluate of the toughen as Cal comes to town. Here's a little secret: The Bears are reeling while the Sun Devils are quietly 14th in the country in total defense. This will be very very interesting. - The only thing standing between Rutgers and a second consecutive home win.
