BCS Predictions – Week 13
Written November 18, 2008 by Mr. East
The Turkeys will soon be on the table, and that only means one thing. The college football season is winding down, and teams are jockeying for position, and the BCS Championship game still has some teams with chips on the table. There are still 5 teams with unblemished marks, and another 6 with just a single loss. Let’s take a look at the week ahead, and see if the picture is getting any clearer.
BALL ST. (10-0) @ C. MICHIGAN
This could be an interesting game, as you know the Chipewa’s will be loaded for bear here, and they have a pretty competent offense, but I’m not sure if they can get it done vs a Cardinal team that seems to have control on both sides of the ball.
CITADEL @ FLORIDA (9-1)
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
TEXAS TECH (10-0) @ OKLAHOMA (9-1)
The top match up of the week. tech has proven worthy and for real, with more than just an offense, but then the Sooners can move the ball a bit themselves, and have the game in Norman. Won’t comment much more, as I may have a big play on this one. Oklahoma is currently a 6.5 point favorite over Texas Tech.
MICHIGAN ST. @ PENN ST. (10-1)
This was perhaps the last gasp for Joe Pa, and the loss to Iowa means roses? Michigan St. might be able to give them a run if their not ready, but not likely.
BOISE ST. (10-0) @ NEVADA
Perhaps the last straw between the Smurf turf Broncos and a BCS Bowl appearance. Nevada has the firepower to give the Broncos a handful, UPSET ALERT?
BYU (10-1) @ UTAH (11-0)
Upstaged only by the TX TECH/OKLA showdown, this one will produce a BCS participant if the Utes can make it 12-0. I think they get it done! Once the bowls have been announced, be sure to check our comparative college bowl odds page to see which sportsbook gives you the best lines on every game!
BYE WEEK:
TEXAS 10-1
ALABAMA 11-0
USC 9-1
BCS OUTLOOK:
Oklahoma is poised to jump Texas and Texas Tech and Florida with a win over the Red Raiders. That potentially puts a team in the Championship game, that lost to a team that will be right on their heels Texas. I hope it happens, so they finally set up some sort of 8 team playoff, it would be unjust.
ALABAMA will have a showdown vs Florida for the SEC Championship, and the Gators with a win, would likely find themselves in the Championship game.
Texas tech has to win at Oklahoma, and win the Big-12 Championship game, and they are in, so they control their own destiny.
USC might be in a tough spot, having to jump some teams that will be playing each other, and one has to win, so roses for the Trojans is most likely scenario
PENN ST. Iowa stole the dream, Roses vs Trojans would be interesting
UTAH & BOISE ST one or the other or both? Gonna be crowded to get them both in, because their are 7 other teams that are virtual locks for a BCS Bowl.
