The Florida Gators and Ohio State Buckeyes will soon clash again. The SEC will very likely face off against the Big 10 once again in the National Championship. Florida and Ohio State are the early season favorites. But bad news for the Big 10. The last two years, the SEC has had their way against the Buckeyes.
In 2007, Florida beat Ohio State 41-14.
In 2008, LSU beat Ohio State 38-24.
So is the SEC that much better than the Big 10? Yes. The SEC's spread offense and option attacks are the new age of college football. The old days of power football are now over.
But this year Ohio State might have a new package of plays with highly touted quarterback Terrell Pryor coming in as a freshman.
Will Pryor's arrival change Big 10 football? We will soon know.

I would give my left arm for a matchup like this! This time, Florida won't have the type of motivation they did in 2006 to beat us. Maybe OSU will run the ball (for the love of God Tressel run the ball) against Florida. It worked on our only good drive against the Gators and worked against LSU. Then we started to pass the ball....uhh ohh.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Terrell Pryor shouldn't be anywhere near the gridiron until he learns how to successfully throw the ball.
That said, for a number of reasons (which I've stated in other posts), I don't believe the Buckeyes will be in the National Championship again this year (and the rest of the nation just had a collective sigh of relief). Florida-Georgia will be the most interesting game of the season.

You are killing me Ryan, you really need to change your picture if the only thing you are ever going to post is how you think that OSU will not make the NC game this year.
Thats fine if you think that way, but really, you need to tell us 10 different times??? You know we dont agree with you. Go to some SEC article and say that shit. Ohio State is going to be the better team going into every game this year and will be favored. So unless you know something that no one else knows, give it a rest.

I'll say it again Ryan, I think OSU will be in the title game and the USC OSU game will be the most intersting. I know your trying to be realistic, but it's realistic to think OSU will be in the NC. You gotta have faith man. No matter what, as a fan, you have to have confidence inyour team that they can go out and win every game. How can you win if u dont think you can in the first place? What's the point of being a fan if you don't have a little faith? You gotta work hard, stay focused and disciplined and the rest takes cares of itself.

derek, what happened to Florida against Michigan if they are so fast ? Why does the SEC have a losing record vs the Big Ten in bowl games since the BCS started.. Quit being brainwashed by ESPN ...

anything can happen on any given day in college football, people pay too much attention to whats happened in the past and make too many judgements, just let them play the game...

absolutely. in fact, you'd be surprised at alot of the gator fans (id say 60% of them) still think we're an elite power and worthy of another national title game.

its possible, but also very random so we will see, its always fun to watch how it unravels even if your team isnt the one front running...
