The BCS Rankings are coming up pretty soon and there will be some shakeups in the rankings. A one loss team might and probably will play for the National Championship. Last week's #1 ALABAMA was upset in South Carolina last week and the new #1 is the OHIO STATE BUCKEYES. In the SEC Auburn gets a true test especially on defense trying to contain RYAN MALLETT and Offensive Guru Bobby Petrino. Auburn's spread Offense is unique and has been giving teams problems all year.
Both IOWA and MICHIGAN will try to stay in the hunt with a pivotal match-up in ANN ARBOR where the team that loses all but diminishes their chances for a Big Ten TITLE as well as a BCS BOWL.
Lets take a look at SATURDAY'S KEY MATCH-UPS:
7PM ET
1. OHIO STATE AT CAMP RANDALL STADIUM: This is one of the games I am sure OSU had penciled in as a big game on the way to another BIG TEN TITLE and possible BCS Title Game. QB and HEISMAN Hopeful Terrell Pryor has to be at his best to get this road victory vs a bend but don't break physical Wisconsin Defense. Wisconsin on the other hand has to get back to getting the workhorse involved in 1st Team All- BIG TEN RB John Clay. With one of the biggest offensive lines in college football the BADGERS should be amped up for this one at home to get back in the race in a big way. A loss for the BADGERS means NO BCS BID for them.
WINNER: BUCKEYES
330PM ET
2. IOWA AT THE BIG HOUSE: This is a real important game for both but more important for IOWA because they have not lost in the BIG TEN yet. The most intriguing match-up in the game is UM Offense and QB Denard Robinson vs the #2 rush defense and #2 scoring defense in the country in IOWA led by DE Adrian Clayborn and CB Tyler Sash. And if IOWA 's defense holds which it should the WOLVERINES will have to stop IOWA and QB Rick STANZI and that could mean LOSS for UM. Michigan must find some defense and soon to have any chance to stay in the BIG TEN RACE.
WINNER: HAWKEYES
330PM ET
3. ARKANSAS AT THE PLAINS OF AUBURN ALABAMA: Who would have looked on the schedule and said this would be a big game this early in the SEC. Auburn is somewhat of a surprise and Arkansas should have beat BAMA a couple of weeks ago. The Key match-ups for the HOGS are their defense vs that Auburn Spread led by QB CAMERON NEWTON who can beat you with his arm and his legs. Vice verse the TIGERS defensive secondary will get tested by QB RYAN MALLETT of the HOGS and his plethora of wideouts. The game will be a high scoring affair an will probably come down to turnover battle and who capitalizes in the red zone more.
WINNER: AUBURN
330PM ET
4. TEXAS @ BIG RED in LINCOLN: The LONGHORNS have their work cut out going to Lincoln. Texas has no clear cut play makers and or leaders that have stepped up. The HUSKERS BLACK SHIRTS DEFENSE are bringing it but it's Head Coach Bo Pelini's Offense and QB Taylor Martinez putting up huge numbers. If the LONGHORNS think they had problems controlling UCLA and BOOMER SOONER, you do not want to watch this one if you are rolling with HOOKEM' HORNS. This GAME has that feel to it like Wood Shed Time.
WINNER: HUSKERS
Every week there are games that impact conferences and the BCS. With the BCS rankings coming out soon you can almost throw out " IF YOU LOSE LOSE EARLY". Once the BCS Rankings come out losing kills all hopes of getting to a BCA Game and/or Conference Championship.
