Florida St. was not a very good test, with all the close calls(even against Boston College)they finally ran out of luck against a good team...and got clocked in the process.

If the game were in PAC10 territory Oregon probably wins it...but in Texas...there's going to be a lot of OSU fans there. A lot will depend on whether or not OSU is drained after beating #1 'Bama...but that's why you get a coach like Urban Meyer.

Of course that wasn't exactly the Alabama team we've come to know either, their defense(already banged up)got gassed because Sims couldn't make plays throughout much of the game. Saban wasn't exactly stellar either in his play calling/clock management.

Pretty good for a 3rd string QB, a couple bad decisions...but he kept his head(and more importantly the ball)when it counted.

...what the hey...the Big Ten finally has a good New Years Day(it's been a while).

Oregon early 7 point favorites over Ohio State. I think they win the game as easy as they beat FSU. They are clicking on all cylinders and no team can keep up with that lighning face offense. They just wear you down and the only teams that ever beat them are in the PAC because they are somewhat familiar with the offense. I think Oregon would have also stomped Alabama.

you get one shot to win these games and you get what you have on that day.

Oregon has won on the road as you may know. OSU had a fine season, but I have never seen a team with speed and ability to put points up like Oregon. I predict they will lave OSU in their wake. And Oregon ale has an excellent defense.

Best team speed on both D and O.’Not an Oregon fan, but they are fun to watch.
