UPSET CITY MAKES A APPEARANCE!!!
National Title dreams are given and taken away in just a moments time..
#1 Ohio State cruised to a (42-16) victory over Oklahoma State to secure the Big Ten crown and a spot in the National Title game, but who would join them?
Not #2 Alabama because the Tide fall (43-40) in Overtime to the Florida Gators. With the loss the Tide drop to #7 in the final BCS Rankings. The SEC Champ Gators with the win move up to #6 and will play in the Sugar Bowl.
#3 South Carolina isn't going either, as the Game cockz.. fall (35-25) to Virginia Tech. SCAR drops to #10 in the final rankings.
That leaves #4 Oregon who defeats Utah (26-10) in the Mountain West Title game. The Ducks jump to #2 and will face the Buckeyes for the title.
#6 Texas jumps to #3 after a (34-17) win over Baylor to win the Big 12 title but they are left headed to the Fiesta Bowl.
#5 Notre Dame moves up to #4 in the final rankings. Despite Oklahoma State finishing as the #2 team in the Big Ten, its the Irish who will get a invite to the Fiesta Bowl who was originally suppose to be the Big 12 champ vs the Big Ten Champ.
So now we will have a 1 vs 2 and a 3 vs 4.
Georgia despite not playing moves up 2 spots to claim #5 in the final rankings.
#9 Iowa defeats Northern Illinois (40-10) in the CUSA title game and moves to #8 in the final rankings. The Hawkeyes (12-1) will now face #13 Ole Miss in the Orange Bowl.
Fresno State is headed to their first ever Rose Bowl as they secure the Pac-12 title with a (28-21) win over UCLA. With Oregon headed to the National Title game, the Rose Bowl committee is left picking the best team out there so they grab #5 Georgia.
I will have a full bowl schedule in the next post.
**Should be noted Buffalo defeated Temple (23-16) to win the MAC. The Buff's finished the year 11-2 well Temple was 10-3
