Championship Week Picks

Sorry about missing the MAC championship game last night, I was out of the office all afternoon and had no real time to get it posted. I would of predicted a close Ball State win but I would never expected Buffalo to run them out of Ford Field, Turner Gill should be a favorite on Washington, Syracuse, Auburn, and Mississippi State list because he took a Buffalo team who have never been good, and built them in a MAC champion in under three years.

ACC Championship
17. Boston College vs. 25. Virigina Tech- We can finally decide who wins the crazed ACC and I think the biggest thing will be Tyrod Taylor versus the Boston College LB crew. If Taylor runs wild all day, it will be a long one for the Eagles but I think their defense is really good, which will show today. BC 27-17

SEC Championship
1. Alabama vs. 4. Florida- Here we go. This is the showdown today that we are all waiting for. Anyone who I have talked has been anticipating this matchup. I think its a straight toss-up, one hand you have the most explosive offense in the nation and pretty solid defense. On the other hand, you have an NFL-ready offensive line and a good defense. I will take the O-Line power, but just barely if this isnt a classic, I will be pissed. BAMA 31-28

Big 12 Championship
2. Oklahoma vs. 20. Missouri- A rematch of last year game and it doesnt look like it will be much different this year. The only way it will be if Dainel can keep up with Bradford step for step but that hasnt happen this year when the Tigers play Big 12 South teams so dont expect tonight. OKLA 52-41

Other Games today...
5. USC at UCLA- Both teams are wearing their home colors and both playing with two timeouts. I think its pretty classy of Neuheisel to give up two of his timeouts too. I dont think it will matter much because the Bruins offense is weak and well USC defense is unreal. As Lendale White said... USC 45-7

13. Cincinnati at Hawaii- Most times that Hawaii trip is just for shits and giggles when you dont make a bowl game but the Bearcats are playing in a BCS bowl. They should be able to win this one against the Rainbow Warriors. CINCY 35-17

23. Pittsburgh at Connecticut- The game going on right now but its no score, I think you will see the Panthers be able to take control of the game with LeSean McCoy and they should win. PITT 24-6

Others to Watch..
East Carolina vs. Tulsa
Arizona State at Arizona
South Florida at West Virginia
