The Final Weekend

It is a sad time for all of us: the end of the college football season is upon us. Time for my final picks. I am 2 for 3 so far, missing on Ball State's second half collapse. So here they are, one last time:

Connecticut over Pittsburgh, 34-24: Pitt is one of the best teams at playing down to the level of competition. They have been so inconsistent, it's amazing to me they got to 8 wins. Then again, in the Big East, if they didn't win 8...
Tulsa over East Carolina, 45-24: Remember the hype about ECU after 3 games? Let's play a few games before we crown BCS busters next time around.
Navy over Army, 38-13: it'll probably be pretty close at the half, but that triple-option attack will wear Army down. Let's just hope it doesn't happen to our troops in the field...
Virginia Tech over Boston College, 27-17: Defense wins championships. Virginia Tech has one, Boston College has something resembling a defense.
Washington under California 48-10: ZERO wins. Ouch. Good luck, Mr. Sarkisian. If anybody can do it, you can. My advice: find a good defensive coordinator, fast!
USC over UCLA 45-9: Rivalry game? Well, when you are this superior to your rival, you have to take it to them. USC has already stated they don't think they'll need their timeouts. I'm pretty sure they'll back that up with their play on the field.
Arizona State over Arizona, 17-14: In their 12th game of the season, preseason number 15 FINALLY gets bowl eligible. Good thing we have those preseason polls: they are a very accurate predictor of how the season will play out. Joke! Only 4 of the preseason top 10 are still in the top 10. One team in the top 10 didn't even get bowl eligible (Auburn). What a waste of energy and excitement when we could have spent August campaigning for socialism.
West Virginia over South Florida, 48-24: Remember when South Florida was ranked number two last year and everybody talked about the newfound strength of their program? This year they played 5 teams with winning records: 2-3, both wins coming at home by 4 points or less...not a good program. They are the Kansas of the Big East: light on the schedule, easy on the wins.
Hawaii over Cincinnati 31-24: traveling thousands of miles after you have already clinched a BCS Bowl berth, why would they show up? I wouldn't. How many chances is a kid from Ohio going to have to go to the Sandwich Islands? Party, have a good time, head out for some football, and then enjoy the Hula dancers. That's what I'd do...if I wasn't married...and if I had enough ability to play football for a Big East team...that darn hamstring keeps holding me back...

The two big ones:
Oklahoma clobbers Missouri, 52-27: Missouri has a chance, but if they don't take it early, this one could be over by the start of the second quarter. That's been OU's formula for success: drop 35 in the first quarter and call it good. And against a Missouri defense that gave up 40 to Kansas?!?!

I can't understand why nobody gives Alabama a chance. They are the only major college football team to go undefeated through the regular season. They are the number 1 team in the country with the best defense east of USC and defense wins championships, last time I checked (explains why BYU is number 3 in the Mountain West). Florida is all flash and no heart. The number one team in the country is the underdog?!? Absolutely ridiculous!
Florida over Alabama 45-17.
