Well, its pretty much set now.
The BCS has placed OU above Texas, and by that action, sends OU to the Big-12 Championship game where they will almost assuredly destroy Missouri who got beat by Kansas this weekend.
USC beat Notre Dame, while Oregon State lost to Oregon. This means that USC must only beat UCLA next [...]

Thanksgiving Update #1

Because of the holidays, we arent putting together a full predictions/analysis this week, but we’ll return hopefully on Sunday night to wrap up the games of the weekend, and by then, we should have a pretty good idea what’s going down in the BCS, or at least, we’ll be able to make some educated guesses.

As expected, week 13 had earth shattering effects on the BCS and the bowl post season.
Texas Tech proved to be a not-ready-for-primetime player as they were completely dominated by a truly National Title contender Oklahoma. Utah and Penn State both dominated their opponents also, assuring their presence in the BCS season.
The way it sits right [...]

Triskaidekaphobia – irrational fear of the number 13.
This being the 13th week of the season, it seems a bit fitting that the biggest games of the season are being played this week end. No other weekend so far has had the potential to set the direction of the BCS as this one. It also [...]

As we alluded earlier this week, the 12th week games showed many teams either resting or playing under-achievers. While there were some lackadaisical performances, there were few things to get excited about. As per usual, the bottom tier teams jostled around a bit, but overall, not much has changed. But whoa boy wait till next [...]
Week 12: Games and Predictions

There will be a bit of a quiet knell in College Football as many teams have either played their pivotal games, or are off for the week. There is only one Top 25 match-up this week in fact, Florida v. South Carolina.
It’s very hard for young men to keep their eyes on the prize this [...]
Week 11 Results and Analysis
Posted in Sports on November 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Perhaps the 2008 campaign will prove out to be vastly different from the 2007 campaign, in that, for the most part, the top 10 pretty much did its job this week, with only one upset. This differs quite drastically from last year when each week was a nightmare for someone in the top 5!
The lone [...]

Last year, in 2007, the upsets began the first week of November and continued through to the end of the season. It looks as if we are in for another down to the wire run again this year too. Everything is getting bunched up early and its for sure that the BCS system will again [...]
