The 2009 Fiesta Bowl was once considered a defacto national championship game of sorts, but after the upset of Alabama by undefeated Utah in the Sugar Bowl, Texas might steal some of Utah’s votes with a win and Ohio State may create quite an end of the year stir with a victory in Tempe, AZ.
Texas (11-1) appeared to be the one team that got snubbed during the bowl selection process, but with the Cotton and Sugar bowl results, many will wonder if it was Utah that got snubbed from the national title game.

      If you are better than Oklahoma then the Championship is SEC again.
      Dang Texas defense is slow. Ohio st is worse.
      I saw very few players flying to the ball.
      Texas secondary is average at best. Actually so is thier whole defense.
      Ohio St. Is slow also
      Oklahoma better come to play, unlike these two very unimpressive teams.

    The only team I can see that can play week in and out in the SEC is USC from this point

    Never mind, it doesn't matter. Place your bets though. The SEC wins again if that is the best to offer.
    USC has my respect.
    The big 12 did before that lazy game.
    I hope Oklahoma has more fight in them than that.
    Texas beat a veeerrry sllllllllowwwwwww team.

    You are obviously blind in one eye and can't see out the other one. Florida will get their ASS kicked Thursday.
