Saturday came and went bringing another batch of college football games. The big game of the week was LSU vs. Alabama. Les Miles and the Tigers had control of the game but the Crimson Tide just overpowered them to win it 24-15. Meanwhile the Iowa Hawkeyes played against the Northwestern Wildcats. However, Ricky Stanzi was injured in the 2nd quarter and had to leave the game with an ankle injury. Iowa would lose 17-10 ending their run for a national title game. They are still in it for a shot at the Rose Bowl. The last big story was the Ducks losing to the Cardinals 51-42. Oregon had just beaten USC and now loses its chance to get into a BCS Title Game. Their Rose Bowl hopes are still alive though.
There were other games on Saturday including #1 Florida vs. Vanderbilt. The Gators would win 27-3 As Tebow actually threw for 208 yards and one TD. The Commodores held Tebow by ground but not by Air. #2 Texas played against UCF as Colt McCoy threw for 470 Yards and 2 TDs as the Longhorns won 35-3. Jordan Shipley was a huge reason for a successful aerial assault as he had 11 Receptions, 273 yards and a TD catch for 88 yards. TCU remains a BCS Hopeful as they beat San Diego State 55-12. Another BCS Hopeful Cincinnati barely beat Connecticut 47-45. Cincy, TCU and Boise State are all still undefeated. I hope they all win out and let the BCS system show its flaws. We are coming into the final weeks in the regular season and I hope that one of these three teams make the National Title game. TCU or Boise State preferably as I would like a non BCS team to win the BCS title. What Irony would that be?
P.S. Texas, please lose. It's likely that Florida and Alabama will eliminate the other from Title contention and that leaves only you to give one of those three teams a chance to make history.
