Ok, here are the two "championship" games:
10* LSU +7
Even though Oklahoma demolished everyone in their path until running into the Kansas St buzzsaw, I look for LSU to win this game straight-up, and the National Championship along with it. The Sooners will never be able to run on the LSU defense, forcing White to win the game with his passing. Can he do it? I doubt it. The Tigers are loaded, and I consider them every bit as talented as the Sooners. Stoops is probably the best coach in college football at this point, but he will meet his match in Saben. Question is can LSU score on the Sooners' great defense? It won't be easy, but the Tigers have as good an OL as the Sooners have seen, and fleet RBs will be coming out of the woodwork. I also rate the Tigers' Clayton a bit higher than the Sooners' Clayton. You'll see why when you watch the game. This will be one of the great championship gamesof our time, and I am looking forward to it very much. I look for a close, hard-fought game, with the Tigers coming out on top at the end.
As you know from above I also have a:
5* on under 49
and a Teaser on: LSU +13.5, under 56.
7* Michigan +7
USC has had a very impressive year, but when I look at their schedule I feel that they haven't played anyone. That might not go over well with Pac-10 people, but other than the Trojans, there are no great teams in the Pac-10 this year. Michigan, on the other hand, no doubt feel very disrespected. They dominated last season's champion in their last game, and will be up to the challenge against the Trojans. I look for this one to be much closer than many think, with the outcome undecided until late in the 4th quarter. Either team is capable of winning this one, although I think USC will prevail, but not by much.
More on today's, and other games, to come.
