Big 12- It is hard for me to pick the Red Raiders to go unbeaten and land in the National title. They dominated Texas, BUT when it gets late in the season, teams start beliving in their hype and tend to falter. Add that to their TRIP to Oklahoma in a few weeks, and the likelihood they go unbeaten is greatly dampened. I think it WILL be the Longhorns who emerge out of this conference as champion AND hopefully, they can land in the NATIONAL TITLE.
BIG 12 CHAMPION Choice- TEXAS
Big 10- This conference is bad…some say its competitive but when NORTHWESTERN has a viable chance to beat the Buckeyes this week, you know the conference is weak. Penn State is undefeated AND looks to remain that way with today’s game in IOWA being their last road game of the season…They get their last two at home with a bad Indiana team AND a ranked Michigan State…Some say Michigan State could pull the upset, I don’t necessarily see that….What a SHAME it would be if these guys make the National title…a team who faces the likes of Coastal Carolina?!? Should NOT be in contention or consideration for a National title…SO, picking by my heart and NOT my head I say they lose one game just because I DON’T want to see ANOTHER Big 10 team in the national title game….
BIG 10 CHAMPION Choice- Penn State
Big East- This has been a DOWN year for this conference…With three weeks remaining every team can still win the conference title outright. The winner does get an automatic bid to a BCS game…What a joke that is, when more deserving teams will miss out on the oppurutunity. My choice here is the West Virginia Mountaineers. West Virginia is UNBEATEN within the conference and seem to be getting better as the season has progressed. Pat White is leading the charge and the NEW coaching staff has its players buying into the new philosophy. Just for the conferences sake, I hope West Virginia can win the conference because they are the ONLY team that can compete in a BCS game…
BIG EAST CHAMPION CHOICE- West Virginia
ACC- This is another conference in a DOWN year…most teams are STILL in contention to reach the title game… There are some big games ahead to determine the winner of this conference. I think the CHAMPION of the conference should come out of today’s game between Georgia Tech and North Carolina. North Carolina’s coach Butch Davis is being talked about for A LOT of different coaching positions through out the college landscape and has done a PHENOMENOL job at a basketball school. It is my projection that NORTH CAROLINA wins today and makes it the a BCS bowl game for the ACC….
ACC Champion Choice- North Carolina
PAC 10- Well, another TYPICAL year in the PAC 10. USC is miles ahead of everyone in the conference, BUT still on the outside looking in on a National title possibility. The Trojans haven’t really played as well as they were expected to this season with a LOSS to Oregon State and a close game against Arizona. Football is played differently on the west coast, and is just not up to par with the more competitive conferences of the BIG 12 and SEC…Pete Carrol says the BCS calculations “stink”, and maybe so. But if you beat the teams you should, it wouldn’t be an issue…Sorry, but another Rose Bowl is in the mist for the Trojans….congrats, really…
Pac 10 Champion Choice- USC
SEC- With Florida’s dominant win over Georgia last week and Alabama’s undefeated season to this point TWO teams have emerged in this conference. Lucky for both, they will not face each other until the conference title game. If both win today, they will both clinch their respective divisons and book the trip to Atlanta for the first week in December. It will be the earliest clinched titles since the early 2000’s. Alabama has NOT looked that dominant since the beat down of the Georgia Bulldogs. They struggled with Kentucky, Ole Miss, and Tennessee. And after Florida looked past Ole Miss and got upset at home, this team has played with purpose and has dominated opponents game in and game out. Florida’s stellar play the past month leads me to believe this is the most complete team in the nation. They have a stellar offense, playmakers on defense, and a consistant special teams unit. The only thing which bothers me is Urban Meyer ball, which is a RUN UP THE SCORE, shove it in your face style of ball…KARMA will come back to haunt him eventually, BUT this season, not going to happen…If Alabama nad Florida should meet in Atlanta, the Gators should dominate and find themselves in the National title for the second time in three years.
SEC Champion Choice- Florida
