As we near the end of the College Football season, there are some intriguing scenarios and situations that could play out. Topping the list would be a 3-way tie atop the Big XII South if Oklahoma beats Texas Tech this weekend.
I'm making some key assumptions in these predictions, so here we go:
- Oklahoma beats Texas Tech. Due to Tech's weak out of conference schedule, voters see them as the 3rd best team in the Big XII, behind Texas and Oklahoma. Since Texas beat Oklahoma head to head at a neutral sight, Texas gets the benefit of the doubt from voters and goes to the Big XII Championship against Missouri.
- The ACC Coastal ends in a 3-way tie between Georgia Tech, Miami, and North Carolina. UNC beat both teams and earns a trip to the title game to face Maryland in a rematch. Maryland earns their trip to the title game this week by beating Florida State.
- Boise State goes undefeated and finishes high enough to earn a BCS bearth.
- BYU beats Utah in the Mormon Bowl, knocking Utah out of BCS contention.
- Since only two teams from a conference are eligible for the BCS, Texas Tech is eliminated from contention.
Florida will beat Alabama in the SEC Championship game, earning their way into the BCS Title game. Texas wins out in the 3-way tie shenanigans of the Big XII South to get into the championship game. They beat Missouri once again and earn a trip to the title game that will be a commentator's dream. A speedy Florida team with an explosive offense and good defense against the dink-and-dunk offense of Texas. Neither team has a running game and this has all the looks of a schoolyard game with the over/under being in the mid 80s. I'd take the over.
Prediction: Florida 52-47
