Now who...???

Question

Now that LSU and Cal lost, who do you pick to be in the BCS National Championship game. I'll go with Ohio State and OU.

Answer 1

OSU and USF, BC doesn't impress me that much. USF and OSU don't have many quality opponents ahead of them.

Answer 2

Ohio State - Are going to have trouble with their remaining Big Ten schedule, but with a defense that has only allowed over 10 points once this season - are looking good. Not to mention an offense that was not suppose to produce much but has been very steady (although against mediocre opponents) this season. I believe Ohio States offense will be able to score enough points to compliment that dominant defense once the tougher opposition steps up.

South Florida - Another team with Championship caliber Defense. Shut down one of the best tandems in College Football (Slaton and White) and have one of the leading Defensive Lineman in CF (Selvin.) The offense has been inconsistent throughout the season...but seemed to click today putting up 64 points. If that offense fine tunes a few things Grothe and the USF defense will lead them to a National Title berth.


**LSU - I think they have the best defense in the Nation - but a horribly brutal schedule. I expect that they will lose one more game this season just because it would be amazing to shut down the teams they will be facing down the stretch. If they do run the table, substitute LSU for South Florida.

Answer 3

Ohio State and LSU (if Doucet comes back from his injury)

LSU will not fall far in the polls, and there is still time (and the schedule) to catch up.

Ohio State should run through the Big 10 like a hot knife through butter until they play Michigan.

Teams to keep an eye on: South Florida, Oklahoma, USC

Answer 4

Honestly, I couldn't justify Cal at #2 with that battered and mediocre defense. Don't count on Ohio State because even if they get through Illinois and @Penn State, they still have to beat a resurgent Michigan team at the Big House. (We'll see how serious that Mike Hart injury was today) Rest assured, if Michigan plays like dirt for the rest of the season, they'll show up to THAT game. Although I'm not particularly an LSU fan, it just doesn't seem right that the Tigers aren't #1. I also thought Florida falling out of the AP favor just doesn't seem right. What if the Gators spank Kentucky next week? What does that say about their win today?

Answer 5

right now it would be ohio state and boston college. at the end i think it will still be lsu probably against south florida, which should go undefeated if they can win at rutgers. lsu will still be ranked 4th or 5th after this week since a loss to kentucky should be rated higher than oklahomas loss to colorado. ohio state will at least lose to michigan and boston college will lose to virginia tech or florida state.

Answer 6

OSU's biggest "problem" this year is their weak schedule. Of their remaining games, their only ranked opponents are (19) Wisconsin and (18) Illinois. However, the only other undefeated team is South Florida, and I don't see a Big East team being selected above OSU or BC.

Answer 7

Hmmmm

1. USF ( I think will be only unbeaten team left)
2. Oklahoma ( Have you seen their remaining schedule? All they need is 2 out of the top 3 to lose a game).

Score

USF- 21
Oklahoma- 20

To shock the College Nation.

Answer 8

OU and LSU still.

LSU is in an excellent conference, and OU is looking like its old self again. Cal, Oregon are going to get beat by USC, who looked very lackluster against Arizona. South Florida? Please. Ohio State? They won't get past Michigan, who is looking better every week.

But then again, this season is crazy as hell.

Answer 9

Boston College

Answer 10

Oregon and South Florida
