For just the third time in the last ten seasons Oklahoma will not be playing for the Big 12 championship leaving us Sooner fans as spectators on the outside looking in. Instead it's the Texas Longhorns facing off against the Nebraska Cornhuskers with a BCS championship birth on the line. It was a week ago today that the Sooners wiped away Oklahoma State's BCS chances. Could the Huskers do something similar tonight by raining on the Longhorns championship parade? What about Bama and Florida, Cincinnati/Pitt and does anyone really care about Georgia Tech and Clemson? Let's discuss!
11:00 am Cincinnati at Pittsburgh
The Bearcats don't just want to be in a BCS bowl they want to be in the championship game. Unfortunately they're in line with TCU hoping for a Nebraska upset tonight but they also need to handle their own business as well. I say they get the job done but will be a little too close for comfort.
Prediction: Cincinnati 24 - Pittsburgh 21
3:00 pm SEC Championship - Florida/Alabama
The BCS Championship and the Heisman Trophy are on the line here as The Chosen One leads the Gators against Mark Ingram and the Tide. A scenario that's out there is that this game ends close and the BCS system gives them a rematch for the BCS Championship. While that's highly unlikely I would laugh everyday for a year should it become a reality and Texas is left out. I actually expect Florida to win this game fairly comfortably but for obvious reasons will be cheering for Alabama.
Prediction: Florida 27 - Alabama 13
7:00 pm ACC Championship - Georgia Tech/Clemson
Seriously, does anyone really care about this game? I know that other than making a prediction I don't give a rip.
Prediction: Clemson 28 - Georgia Tech 20
7:00 Big 12 Championship - Texas/Nebraska
This is the Longhorns third opportunity for a conference championship in the last ten seasons. They've fallen on their faces once and won once. Coincidently their upset loss to Colorado was in the old Texas Stadium and tonight's match-up with underdog Nebraska is in the new Texas Stadium. The Huskers will need some help from defensive and special teams scores to pull the upset and I still don't know if it will be enough. The Sooner Nation will be pulling for them regardless.
Prediction: Texas 28 - Nebraska 17

I can’t believe Nick Saban said what he said in his interview with Tracy Wolfson.
Should Ingram win the Heisman? “…he’s one of the best players on one of the best teams…”
It confirms what we were talking about in the previous post about the Heisman!

Worst case scenario
I have hated Alabama for years and a matchup between them and Texas for the MNC blows. I guess it is a slightly better scenario than Texas – Florida with Texas winning 24-14, but I personally would like to put this whole season in one of those cubes they used in Superman II to imprison those criminals and send it off into space never to be thought of or remembered ever again.

I don't see how NU hangs on
A single return turns this game around. Or a myriad of other plays. NUs offense is just abysmal. If you do not give it to them on the 1-yd line, then they can do little. Eventually Greg Davis will make adjustments and figure this out (I think I just threw up in my mouth typing that).

agree on getting the ball to Paul
but I am not sure that the OC can do much. NU looked this crappy against us too – the only reason they won – well, besides the 5 INTs was that we gave them the ball on the 1 yd line. Otherwise, they had the same game plan – short field – kick field goals…

Texas gets the ball back with 1:40 or so
and two TOs and all they need is a FG – sounds like a Heisman campaign dream setup for McCoy.

laugh it up, yuk it up and have a good time till the big game and then cry your ugly butt off because Bama WILL stomp a mudhole plumb thru McCoy and Smack Clown. They will be out played and out coached. Your team will choke, choke and choke again. Guess what , when that happens I will let Texass fans and UT know it every day for as long as they play football, just like you and the UT fans do us. And don’t give the crap that your team got there. We used that reasoning as well and you people poo pooed it. So when it happens to you get ready.
So you should shut up and go into the Texass corner and prepare for it come.

They are 13-0
Even though they played horribly they found a way to win against a team that we couldn’t beat. Even though they didn’t play well they found a way to win. How was this different from ’Bama needing a blocked field goal to win the game. Texas at least won the game instead of relying on the opposing team to mess up.
The fact is Texas always wins games like this while we don’t and that is disturbing. They find ways to win games when they don’t play well and we don’t and that needs to change.
Give Texas some due. Going undefeated is hard ask Florida.
There was a firefight!!!!
by ThePhenomenon on Dec 5, 2009 11:44 PM CST up reply actions 1 recs
Sure, we lost...
by 7…at Lincoln…AND WE SUCK THIS YEAR. We lost to them because we suck this year, and no other reason.
What’s Texas’s excuse? They’re playing what is practically a freaking home game, and they win by one freaking point on a last-second field goal against a team that couldn’t score a touchdown if it had another 8 quarters to do it? For Pete’s sake, they only beat US by three points…and again, WE SUCK THIS YEAR.
Texas might be undefeated, but the rest of the Big 12 sucks this year, and THEY DO NOT DESERVE TO PLAY FOR THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. If they had won by the two touchdowns they were favored by, I’d say let them go. But after last night’s “performance” I say send them to the Fiesta and let them deal with it. If we’re going to talk undefeated teams, let TCU or Cincinnati go.

Not true
To say that they don’t deserve to play for the National Championship is a bit harsh. Now I agree that there should be some debate, but to completely dismiss a team that has dominated everybody they played with the exception of OU and Nebraska is kind of harsh.
I think they are just as deserving as TCU, Cincy and Boise State. You can blame Texas for their non conference schedule, but you can’t blame them for the Big 12 being bad. They played the teams on their schedule and won all their games. Its not UT’s fault for being consistent and putting themselves in position to this.
Do your really think a Cincinnati team that needed a missed extra point to beat a Dave Wannstedt coached team is more deserving than Texas? Do you really think that a team that can’t stop anybody is more deserving than Texas?
How is TCU more deserving than Texas? What they beat an average Clemson team by 7 and supposedly their great offense only mustered 17 against a horrific Clemson defense? Give me a break. You are just hating like UT fan’s hate on us last year. I, for one, am looking forward to a great national title game.

Texass is deserving of a slap in the head for not being able to stop A&M or muster any kind of a semblence of a game plan against NU. Was it just me or was that the same A&M team OU beat by 50????

I don't have to give Texass anything
and neither does any other Sooner fan. They don’t gives us anything even though we have dominated the B12, Have more Heismans, have more NC’s, played in more NC games etc the list could go forever.
You can go ahead and play nice, be nice to them etc, but you won’t get it in return. But I don’t expect it. Texas doesn’t always win games like this etc. What usually happens that teams self-destruct or coaches make poor calls like last nights last kickoff. shipley hadn’t done a damn thing in the return game. Kick to him again and he gets to the 25 at the most. Start McCoy from there and it is simple, tghe Whorns get beat. But they didn’t win except in score, they played but they didn’t look like winners.

I have to say it
well smart a$$ only USC kicked our butts. Neither LSU nor Florida ran away with the games they played OU.
I have a feeling that Bama can kick UT’s butts like USC did OU’s, however Saban is more of a nice guy and will call it off around 35 to 10, with UT being the 10(maybe). After all Saban’s D ate Mr. Walk-on-the-Water Tbo’s lunch from the very beginning to the very end.

Fair enough. I'm sure I can dig around for UT blowout scores from years ago.
I like to look at the recent past which includes UT beating OU head to head 4 of the last 5 times. Anyway, best of luck against Harbaugh & Co. I think Texas will be ready to go. What’s the worst that could happen in a MNC game? I guess you guys learned that the hard way against USC.

well, Saban and his coaches certainly have a good blueprint for D
We did the same thing that Nebraska did – got good push up front, blitzed like crazy – esp. early it seems like – and leave the corners to play one-on-one while taking away the short / drag routes. That seems to shut down their offense pretty effectively and I assume that Bama has at least as good as athletes on D as OU/NU does

Cornhusker coaching staff made a huge mistake!
This has already been mentioned, but the kickoff return should have been kicked way deep, preferibly behind the end zone, so shipley can’t return it and UT starts at the 20. But NO, Nebraska kicks it out of bounds on the sideline and UT gets it at the 40 (or 45?). Then that dang horse collar. The win would have been wrapped up, and we could have seen two Heisman hopefuls crying tonight!
I am convinced of two things:
1) Colt will not win the Heisman.
2) Even a modest improvement in UT’s offense, i.e. receivers actually holding on to the ball, will in no way match the excellent Bama playing I saw tonight. I will call the MNC right now with Bama winning with at least two touchdowns. Go Bama!!!!
