2009 College Football Preview
So, a good number of us await the enormous games we play beyond the conference, and others look forward to those big conference games. But then there’s the small amount of people that think about January. I’ll admit, I do it all the time.
Notably since I root for a team who hasn’t been victorious in a bowl game since 2006, whereas up until that, they had been victorious in five consecutively. But I still stand devotedly adjacent to them, and the Giant 10 Conference.
So what might happen in the non-BCS championship games? I have no indication, I’ll sort that out sometime this week or next. But the BCS Bowl Games, here’s what I believe is going to transpire, and how it might be prevented from taking place.
ROSE BOWL sponsored by Citibank (Pasadena, California) OSU Buckeyes vs (at) USC Trojans This game may undoubtedly be averted. I forecast USC to suffer defeat one game in the course of the season, as they usually do.
If they get past the Buckeyes on September 12, then they’ll be okay. But look out for the Cal Bears. I still expect S.C. will win the Pac-10, lately becoming known as the “Pac-1.” The Buckeyes play the men of troy at home in September, where they’d much rather be than Pasadena, mere miles from the Los Angeles Coliseum. But look out for that November 7 matchup, in Pleased Valley.
Needless to say, the last time the Bucks traveled there, they blew out the Lions 37-17. But they need a victory, notably if they go down to USC in September. If they might defeat the Trojans in September, and the Lions in November, they might be headed for the National Title. And the same goes for USC.
Tostitos FIESTA BOWL Oklahoma Sooners vs Notre Dame Fighting Irish One event might inhibit this match, October 17. That signifies the date of the Red River Rivalry between Oklahoma and Texas.
The winner of that, which I noticeably forecast to be Texas, should more or less easily make it to to the National Championship. Nevertheless.. watch out for the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Notre Dame’s revisit to glory should start hitting large strides this year.
They have an extremely experienced team, and a #13 preseason status. Assuming they suffer defeat to USC, but thrash their 84 other rivals (haha), they should find a nice spot in the BCS at year’s end.
BCS National Title Game sponsored by Citibank (Pasadena, Ca) the Florida Gators vs the University of Texas Longhorns The University of Florida. Almost everybody picks them to end up in Pasadena on January 7th, led by one of the top players of our generation, Tim Tebow. They have a few obstacles at some point in the season.. but every person is circling their October ten showdown, at LSU. That and the Florida-Georgia game on Halloween are the chief challenges for the Gators, in addition to whoever they play against in the SEC Championship.
