There won't be ten picks, but here is my take on a few championship games this week:
Auburn vs. South Carolina
Auburn managed the biggest comeback in school history Friday with a win in the Iron Bowl over Alabama. South Carolina has played its best football the past month, with the only exception being the meaningless game against Arkansas. I honestly and unbiasedly believe that South Carolina will win this football game. Something tells me that Auburn will finally succum to the law of defense, which has to be met in order to be champion in this league. Just ask Urban Meyer.
South Carolina 38 Auburn 35
Oklahoma vs. Nebraska
Oklahoma, as they have done for the past ten years, again received benefit of the doubt in the polls at the end of the season. This is the second three way tie that the polls have given them a victory in for the past 4 years. Nebraska is back in the Big 12 title game once again, though this will be their last, as they will be in the new Big 10 next year. Bo Pelini gets the win over Stoops and finishes out the Huskers' road in the Big 12 on top.
Nebraska 27 Oklahoma 23
Florida State vs. Virginia Tech
Jimbo Fisher, in his first season as head coach of the Seminoles, destroyed archrivals Florida and Miami by at least 3 touchdowns each. Nice start. Tech, after starting 0-2 against Boise St. and coughcough James Madison coughcough, has realed off 10 straight wins and has not been beaten by a BCS automatic qualifier this season. That changes this Saturday. FSU will return to prominence officially with a trip back to the Orange Bowl after a 5 year drought.
Florida State 21 Virginia Tech 20
My last prediction says that Alabama will end up playing in the Outback Bowl vs. Michigan State or Iowa.
