Who Is Going To Win Texas A&m V. Oklahoma By: Anthony Moretti | - With a BCS bowl still at stake, the Sooners play host to Texas A&M Saturday, hoping to avoid a repeat result from last year's meeting with the Aggies. The Aggies have three losses this season by a total of 12 points (all at home), and the Sooners lost their last home game by three points to Texas Tech.
Oklahoma leads the all-time series 18-11, but lost last year as a ranked team to an unranked Aggie team, as A&M posted a 33-19 win at home. That game broke a seven-game Sooner win str ... Tags:oklahoma, texas a m, college football

Michael Dyer, Nick Fairley And Wes Byrum Provide The Edge As Auburn Beats Oregon For Bcs Title By: Ed Bagley | - Two of the nation's most prolific scoring teams (a combined 88+ points per game) played a scoreless 1st quarter in their 2010 NCAA National Championship Game before engaging in a hard-nosed battle of wills. Wes Byrum's 19-yard field goal ended it on the last play, giving the #1-ranked Auburn Tigers a 22-19 victory over the #2-ranked Oregon Ducks.

When Mark Dantonio took over as head coach of the Michigan State University football program 3 years ago, no one was more excited and clapping louder than this former athlete and Michigan State graduate. It was easy to understand why.

Much was made of star Texas quarterback Colt McCoy being knocked out of the National Championship Game early on against Alabama. His replacement, Garrett Gilbert, an inexperienced freshman, came in to replace McCoy. Alabama won the 2009 title 37-21, giving the impression that a freshman could not get the job done in a big game.
Twelve months is a long time to wait when you seek personal and team redemption, but it is also a short time to wait when the event yields a positive result and you can bask in that success for the rest of your life. For Alabama this year, the memories will be ever so sweet, and at least one legend will be created in the process.
Another great college football season has come and gone. Here is my final poll for 2009, and why I rank them where I do. Die-hard fans should remember that next year's first kickoff is only 7 months away.
1) Alabama (14-0) – Can there be any doubt left? I think not. There is a reason why I have had Alabama ranked No. 1 for the last 7 consecutive weeks of the season. Now you know why.

Houston blew into the Armed Forces Bowl with its quarterback Case Keenum, the nation's leading signal-caller with 5,671 passing yards, 44 touchdown passes and 15 interceptions.
Houston had earned a right to swagger—the Cougars' led the nation in offensive production, averaging 563 yards a game, and also were tied with Boise State for the nation's top scoring offense, averaging 42 points a game.
Eight of the 34 bowl game winners—or approximately 25 percent—earned their victories by 3 or less points, and none won in more exciting fashion than Idaho—and that includes two double overtime winners (Wyoming and Central Michigan) and two single overtime winners (Arkansas and Auburn).
Eight of the 34 bowl game losers—or approximately 25 percent—lost by 20 or more points, none worse than Nevada's 45-10 drubbing at the hands of the rising Southern Methodist University Mustangs in the Hawaii Bowl. For SMU coach June Jones, it was homecoming all over again.

Finally A Playoff System Could Be Coming To College Football By: Frank Bilotta | - This year alone five teams went undefeated, and yes the top two teams that made the BCS championship game Texas, and Alabama do play in arguably the two best conferences in college football. That does not mean that they should automatically be considered favorites over the other three Cincinnati, TCU, and Boise State. Yes the three may play in a weaker conference but it"s still pretty hard for any team to go undefeated all year in any conference.
If you are not a college football fan and could care less if you never see a bowl game in your life, you might wonder what all of the fuss is about. If you have a red-blooded male in your life, just ask him.
There will be 34 NCAA bowl games this year and the fuss in each one will be about prestige and money, big money, as in more than a collective $139 million for the participating teams and their respective conferences.
Alabama, Texas, Cincinnati, Oregon and Georgia all won major conference championships recently and earned key spots in 4 of the 5 upcoming, coveted BCS bowl games. Here is how their victories have changed my Top 25 Poll rankings for college football's 14th week.

It was a good week to be Florida, Alabama, Texas, Cincinnati, Boise State, Iowa and TCU—all won, and all are the only unbeaten major teams left in the nation. Every one of them are beatable, the only monster thing about any of them are the college publicity departments that promote them. Here's my Top 25 for the 7th week:
Just when you thought some sense of stability might have returned to college football during the halfway point of the season, any semblance belies the truth that at least four more teams have become frauds in the national title chase—Kansas, Ohio State, Virginia Tech and Nebraska.
Kansas had raced to a perfect 5-0 start. Virginia Tech lost its opener, Ohio State lost its second game, and Nebraska lost its third game. All three had l ... Tags:college, football, top 25, BCS, Alabama, Florida, Texas, Cincinnati, Iowa, TCU
(Editor's Note: This is Part 2 of a story about the life of a college football team's season in only two games—one was an abject heartache, and the other an extreme joy. The team was the University of Washington this season, and the events that unfolded brought to mind Charles Dickens' novel "A Tale of Two Cities". Here is what really happened, and when.)
This is a story about the life of a college football team's season in only two games—one was an abject heartache, and the other an extreme joy. The team was the University of Washington this season.
Charles Dickens penned this famous line in his novel "A Tale of Two Cities"—"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times . . .," and the Husky football players experienced these two events in reverse order.
It is not often when the coaches and the media agree on their opinion of who should be in the preseason Top 25 college football polls, but this year at least their Top 5 picks are mirror images—Florida (1), Texas (2), Oklahoma (3), Southern California (4) and Alabama (5).
(Editor's Note: The rankings in this article are from the AP Top 25 Poll of sportswriters and sportscasters, and any ratings are from Jeff Sagarin.)
No win in College Football's 4th week of action was any bigger than unranked Iowa's 21-10 upset victory on-the-road over 5th-ranked Penn State in Happy Valley. Iowa is now unbeaten at 4-0.
The 'variable' Bcs System - The Best Compromise By: Matt Baxendell | - There has been a lot of griping about Texas' exclusion from the BCS National Title Game in favor of Oklahoma this past week (including from yours truly) and it is with much trepidation that I have decided that the BCS needs revamping.
Now, I'm a well-established defender of the BCS. I love the idea of the #1 v. #2 matchup to establish a National Champion. I love how vital the regular season is every single week.

An undefeated Auburn was shunned in 2004, Boise State's undefeated 2006 season which included a win over heavily-favored Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl was not worthy of a chance at a National Championship and this season will see at least one one-loss team in the BCS Championship with other ...
