Well, here we are. The end of the 2012 season, more deep south dominance and an intriguing year of college football. Notre Dame has the luck of the irish as they go down south to Miami to face an experienced Alabama Crimson Tide.
Here are the other BCS bowls:
Rose Bowl
Stanford vs Wisconsin.
We all thought Wisconsin, given their lackluster start, wouldn't even dream of a bowl game let alone a BCS bowl. But, they channeled some WVU and shellacked Nebraska, and their great rushing attack is going to clash against a scrappy Stanford team whose #1 in rush D. Kevin Hogan is also undefeated in his last starts, and all over ranked teams.
Winner: Stanford. 31-21.
Fiesta Bowl
Oregon vs Kansas State
If only they took care of business, they'd be headed to Miami. God must have a thing for the south(then again, it does possess the Bible Belt...) and now we have a National Championship Caliber matchup in Glendale. Oregon's high octane attack vs K-State's ground and pound. A freshman versus a Hesiman finalist senior.
Winner: Oregon. 55-38.
Sugar Bowl
Florida vs Louisville
If Florida didn't act like it wasn't drunk on cocktails in Jacksonville, they would have played(and maybe beat) Alabama in Atlanta. In addition, many a Sooner fan are baying for the BCS' head for being spurned again in favor of the Big East. Teddy Bridgewater can start his 2013 Heisman Campaign with this game.
Winner: Florida. 28-21.
Orange Bowl
Florida State vs Northern Illinois.
The huge shocker everyone is talking about. A MAC school, a BCS buster making it into a BCS bowl against a preseason National Champion contender. The Huskies offense has firepower, but I doubt their defense can contain James Wilder Jr and company, not to mention for FSU, this is somewhat of a home game.
Winner: Florida State. 45-28.
National Championship Game.
Notre Dame vs Alabama.
Defensive titans clash in South Beach. The Irish has had bad games, but winning ugly is still winning. Alabama in their games against TAMU, LSU, and Georgia proved that they have weak spots and no signature pass rusher like LSU's duo. Notre Dame's O-line is big and beefy and can contend with the SEC, and their Defense is nothing to snort at. For Alabama, it's AJ McCarron or bust, as the Irish will lock up the run and try to triple cover Amari Cooper.
Winner: Notre Dame 16-14.
