On the BCS

The Hokies victory yesterday meant both of my teams may win their BCS bowls. Also, a note of analysis from the game showed me just how important defense is up against a good passing offense. Basically after losing Murray I think OU has a weake run option left, despite contrary assertions. After watching Cin give up 4 interceptions, I really think the Gators' D will win the game because Bradford hasn't been passing against such speedy defenders. The caveat is of course that Bradford's accuracy is much higher than Pike's and his wide outs are probably a lot better too. I also think that the OU defense won't contain our offense, and so we may have a pretty high score.

My prediction: Gators 45 - 27
