Tom's National Top 11

Four teams finish the regular season undefeated and only 2 advance into championship games. If it were only so easy for Alabama, who has to finish the season against the #2 Florida Gators in Atlanta. This will be the 3rd time our Top 11 No. 1 has faced No. 2, only this time it's for all the marbles. Many around the country believed Bama had no chance, that Tebow and Harvin would carve them up like anyone else, until Alabama showed critics how a No.1 team destroys their rival in a season finale. Awesome, I was embarrassed for Tommy Tub. On the same day the Gators pounded maybe their toughest opponent all year, Florida St, 45-15. This will be an interesting match-up and I can hardly sleep just thinking about it, winner will advance to the National Championship (3rd straight appearance for the SEC). The Sooners win their 6th conf. game in a row and also won the BCS race to play for their conference crown against Mizzou, oh and it turns out they did in fact beat the Big East Champs. Texas wins their 3rd conf. game in a row, their best streak being 4, and best non-conf. win was against a 5-7 Arkansas. Hmm. Penn State and USC are looking to play in the Rose, unless Mizzou wins and Longhorns get snubbed again. Tech barely gets by Baylor at home to stay alive in the BCS race. Utah and Boise finally join the club with undefeated records and await their BCS bowl invitations. #10 Cincy clinches the Big East title and maybe a Sugar Bowl appearance. Buckeyes lost a close one to Penn St, and got mauled by USC.. turns out those are respectable losses.
