National Championship

The stars are aligning for an Oklahoma-Florida national championship game. I really would like to see Alabama win it all, but I just don't see them stopping Florida. I don't think they have the offensive firepower to hang with the Gators, and playing good D against Florida means holding them to 35 points instead of 50 something. Bama also had what amounts to a cupcake schedule this year, when you consider that Tennessee, Georgia, LSU, and Auburn all fell off the map. It won't be as bad as what Florida's been doing to folks like us and FSU, but I'm not expecting it to be real close either. Florida's defense looks great on paper. They've only had more than 20 scored on them twice all season. Calling it Florida 38 Bama 24.

As for Ok-can't-win-a-BCS-game-lahoma, they've been torching everything in sight lately. Four straight 60+ point games. They DO have a D, but it has been inconsistent. They hold the incredible Mad Scientist Texas Tech offense to 14 points and then turn around and let Oklahoma State score 41 on them.

I think we'll have a shootout on our hands if these two meet up, but Oklahoma won't be able to hang 50 on a Gators D that has only allowed more than 20 points twice. It all depends on which Oklahoma D shows up. If its the D that held Texas Tech to 14, it should be a good night for the Sooners. If its Oklahoma's normal Big 12 D, Florida will score at will and hold Oklahoma to a high-for-most-teams-but-low-for-them type figure.

Calling it: Florida 49, Oklahoma 38

Florida should be the favorite but I like 'Bama's attitude.
Don't count them out.

I hope you're right UGAChemDawg and on paper, I think you're right on.
My concern is 'Bama's D-Line and O-Line. I have a feeling they will handle the Gators easily. I just hope that our \"skilled\" guys can make up the difference. Also, Percy Harvin is is hurt and that will be a huge factor!

The pretty pick is obviously UF but usually Defense and the guys up front on both sides of the ball control the game. For that reasoning, don't count out Bama. They have been going about their business very quietly and imposing their will on everybody making them play the way Bama wants to play the game. Not pretty and flashy but very overpowering.....also don't feel UF likes to be punched in the mouth, they aren't a physical team as much as a finess team (I know, I know, Spikes and Tebow). It will be a very interesting game to say the least.

Plus, Bama is 100% healthy.
