Ready for one last weekend of college football before bowl season?

 

Me too.  

 

Here are the picks... 

 

 

SEC Championship: Tennessee vs. LSU 

 

It will be interesting to see if LSU has a hangover from last week—especially after the absurd comments coach Les Miles has made recently. 

 

With a head coach and assistant coach both rumored to be headed elsewhere, it will be tough for the Tigers to rally for a win. 

 

Meanwhile, Tennessee is out to prove all the doubters wrong—and the Vols definitely have the advantage in terms of motivation. 

 

In the end, I just don’t think Tennessee has enough talent to overcome this tried and tested LSU team. 

 

My pick:  LSU 

  

Big 12 Championship: Oklahoma vs. Missouri 

 

Missouri’s story is great, but I think their title dreams run of out of gas this weekend. 

 

It’s tough to beat a team twice in a football season, but the Sooners have so much experience in big games, while the Tigers still have much to prove in the grand scheme. 

 

Stoops might not be the most demonstrative coach, but he knows what he’s doing. 

 

My pick:  Oklahoma

  

ACC Championship: Virginia Tech vs. Boston College 

 

What a strange season for both of these teams.
