Key Games in Week 14:

Florida at Florida State

The Seminoles talked trash about Tim Tebow last season and paid for it by getting blown out by the Gators in Gainesville. Florida heads to Tallahassee this season, but the result shouldn't be much different.

Winner: Florida

Auburn at Alabama

The Tigers enter with a six-game winning streak over their archrival, but Nick Saban will have a good team this year and will certainly have his team ready to end that streak playing at home. This will be a battle, but Auburn still should have the better team and win the game. This could go either way.

Winner: Auburn

Texas A&M at Texas

The Aggies have had a knack for knocking off the Longhorns recently. Both teams have experienced quarterbacks, but the Longhorn defense will come to play in this one. Texas wins this rivalry game at home.

Winner: Texas

Kansas at Missouri

In what all of a sudden has become a marquee rivalry, the Jayhawks and the Tigers clash again in St. Louis. Missouri was too much for Kansas last season, and I don't expect anything different this season. Chase Daniel continues his great season and run for the Heisman.

Winner: Missouri

West Virginia at Pittsburgh

Think the Mountaineers remember this game from last year? Pittsburgh knocked off West Virginia on the road to dash the Mountaineers national title chances. West Virginia will be out for revenge this time and will get it done.

Winner: West Virginia

Georgia Tech at Georgia

Can Paul Johnson come in and stop Georgia's current dominance in this rivalry? In a word, no. Not this season anyway. The Bulldogs playing at home have way too much for the Yellow Jackets to handle in this game.

Winner: Georgia

Also, a reminder that at the end of the season, there will be an eight-team playoff that will be voted upon by you.  You will be able to go to my blog and vote for the winner of each matchup, and the winners will move on each week.

You will also be able to vote for who wins the 2008 Heisman Trophy after the season as well.  So get out the word, and you decide the outcome of the 2008 season.
