Championship Saturday: Predictions

Well here we go. The last true Saturday of the College Football Season. Let's get to it.

Up first, 12:00 PM ET No. 5 Cincinnati at No. 15 Pittsburgh
This should be a good one. This game has bounce around from pick 'em to 2 to 2.5. Look for Cincinnati to take care of business on the road. There just clicking right now, and I don't see Pitt stopping that train.

3:30 PM ET Arizona at No. 18 USC
Does this game really matter, this year since Oregon is going to the Rose Bowl. No. But we'll keep an eye on it nonetheless.

4:00 PM ET No. 1 Florida vs. No. 2 Alabama at the Georgia Dome
I don't think Urban Meyer is going to fool Coach Saban twice in row in the ATL. Look for Dunlap (who is expected to be a top 10 NFL draft pick) serving a 1 game suspension to be key. BAMA will win this one.

8:00 PM ET No. 3 Texas vs. No. 22 Nebraska at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium
Texas is a bigtime favorite in this one, currently predicted to win by 14. If anybody can do it in the BIG 12, it is going to be Bo Pellini. I'm just not sure if there offense can hang with Jordan Shipley and Colt McCoy. I'm love to see the upset - bring on the bedlam. Look for Texas to win this one, but don't be surprised tonight if Nebraska reclaims the crown.

8:00 PM ET No. 10 Georgia Tech vs. Clemson in Tampa, FL.
I'm really not sure who is going to show up in this one. After Georgia rolled it up on the ground against the yellow jackets, and the gamecocks thoroughly showed Clemson the door, it is hard to have faith in either team. Either way this is for BCS bowling rights, and I guess I'd have to say this rematch is going to be a backyard brawl similar to the first meeting these two had earlier in the year. Look for Spiller to bust in big. I doubt he gets shut down two weeks in a row.
