BCS Beyond: Breaking Down the Top Four Teams

Better than to rant about why TCU should be in the Top 3, or why Florida/Alabama are running through an over rated 2009 SEC, I decided to stick to the numbers. While most of this is opinion based, I really feel for the most part it accurately reflects the team's this season up to this point. Keep in mind all these teams are undefeated, and all have very strong cases why they should be in the BCS title game. The number in each catagory rank each team against each other for that category (1 for the best, 4 the worst). Also, each position was ranked against each team, and while positions such as running back units, receiving units, offensive line, and the entire defense is highly debatable, I used stats, dominating ability, and my own scouting that I do for Optimum Scouting to decipher who goes where.

The Fall Of the Big House of Michigan

The phrase, "Oh how the mighty have fallen" doesn't quite sum up how the Michigan Wolverines have gone from feared home game to just another road game.

In the days of "Bo", Michigan losing a home game would be on CNN. Even in the days of Lloyd Carr the Wolverines would consistently route Big Ten opponents in the Big House.

From 2002 to 2006, Michigan boasted a 29-4 home record, with 2005 contributing 3 defeats. The Wolverines were 3-1 vs. Ranked opponnents at home and split the Ohio State games 1-1 in that time time period at home.

Now, the name "Big House" is just a figure of speech, as the stadium fills over 100,000 fans. The days of Michigan dominance in Ann Arbor each season is beginning to fade each season.

Heisman Update
The Heisman race has never been this tight in college football history, especially in the pre-season. The top 3 leading vote getters from a season ago all return, all having legitimate cases to win both the prestigious trophy and the BCS title. However, a wide open race has ensued, and while the non-injuried members of the "three amigos" from last season remain in the discussion (Tebow and McCoy), quarterbacks from prestious programs, a defensive playe and a sophomore running back all look to fight for the top spot and the most respected individual trophy in all of sports.

College Football Game To Watch
While everyone may not be in-love with the BCS, one of the best arguments for it is that the regular season means more for College Football than any other sport at either the college or pro level. Whether the game is National title important, Conference title important, or Rivalry important, here are the games that every college football fan should be tuned into this season.

College Coach Hot Seat

The college coaching carosel seems to be never ending every off-season. While the occasional big job has opened up in recent years (Auburn, Alabama, Notre Dame, Washington), most off-season's are filled with fledging teams looking to be the next Boise State, or lower BCS schools looking to get out from the basement. Here are the top coaches to get ousted this year, as well as the record they likely need to attain to keep their job.
