Florida College Football
Posted by: Bradley McDonald
Tough Saturday for college football fans in Florida. Miami, Florida State, and Florida all lost on the same day for the first time since Oct. 14, 1978. It doesn't quite compare to a first World Series win since 1918, but a significant event nonetheless. The biggest upset was North Carolina over 3rd ranked Miami; although North Carolina's win over 5th ranked Florida State was also major. The Florida Gators continued to slide, but their loss to 7th ranked Georgia wasn’t unexpected.
Oklahoma stayed undefeated by escaping with a 3 point win over Oklahoma State. Looks like USC and Oklahoma are on a crash course for the National Championship Game. USC shouldn't have any trouble with the rest of it's schedule and Oklahoma's toughest test is next week against Texas A&M. Although, if Auburn stays undefeated by beating Georgia and then Tennessee in the SEC Championship game, they may have enough quality wins to sneak into one of the top two spots in the BCS.
Who knows what will happen with the BCS? The only certainty is that there will be a disappointed team(s) if there are more than two undefeated teams. And it will stay that way until some kind of playoff scenario is implemented. I'll get into that later.
