Battle of the Unbeatens

Well it's the battle of the unbeatens.  First of course we have the typical Big 12 teams with lack of schedule strength battling with Texas vs Iowa St and Baylor vs Kansas St.  Nebraska goes against Wisconsin for not only another great matchup of two top ten teams but the first time Nebraska will play in it's new conference.  On top of those four games we have up and coming Clemson on the road at Virginia Tech for Clemson's first road test to see if they are for real and Virginia Tech's first test the whole season as they haven't played an AQ BCS team yet.  And of course, we have the game that interests me the most with Alabama heading down to the Swamp to play Florida and Will Muschamp(yet again...).  What an exciting weekend. 


This is always when college football becomes the battle of who lost a better game first.  For instance, what if Florida beats Alabama, Alabama then goes on to win the rest of their games including the SEC championship, would they be a one loss team to go to the national championship over say an Oklahoma that loses to Texas later in the season??  People tell me that the BCS system works, but when push comes to shove, lose early because you will get more votes from coaches, the AP, and the mighty BCS system will throw the numbers in your favor.  Regardless of the BCS, this middle part of the season is when we finally see conference foes go after each other with win or go home mentalities and I LOVE it! You don't see this in pro football, you don't even see it in college basketball, and the only time you see it in baseball is when your team goes the whole year winning and then decides that bringing your bat to a game is a bad idea(thanks a lot Braves...).  This weekend is the type of weekend that reminds me why it is worth it to sit on my couch ALL day watching football.  Who am I kidding, every weekend is like that in college football, I am just excited that two TVs won't be enough!!
