The SECCG is post-season; it shouldn’t hurt either team’s chances of playing in the BCS National Championship–but as we all know, it will. The uproar should be if there ISN’T a rematch in January.

The Bama UF game. This is a game ive been waiting for all year. I pull for the Gators when they arent playing the Tide.

Obviously the keys to the game are stop Tebow and Bama perform in the running game. Im sure UF will stack the line and force Gmac to pass. If he is sucessful, then I think Bama wins late with the running game. If Bama cant pass early, then it will be a long day. Tebow will get his yards and share of big plays. Bama has to limit that.
Here’s to a heck of a finish in the SECCG and the winner a shot at the BCS championship.

[...] Championship Rematch? Theoretically, yes, it could happen. Will it? We don’t think so. The voters set the precedent in 2006 when they put Florida in the MNC against the Ohio State instead of Michigan. If total chaos plays out on Saturday, the human voters will get wind (via BCS math gurus) of how to vote to avoid said rematch. [...]

[...] • Game of the year, let’s play two! Not content to revel in just one awesome collision of rapidly expanding supernovas destined to blind the fools who look directly at the field during Saturday’s kickoff, veteran SEC guru Tony Barnhart went out of his way to rehash the prospects of an Alabama-Florida rematch for the national championship — with the Tide and Gators running so far ahead of would-be party crashers TCU and Cincinnati in the latest BCS standings, all it would take for the computers to get them back together in Pasadena is another reasonably close game and a Nebraska upset over Texas in the Big 12 Championship Saturday night: It will all come down to the human voters and how far they drop the SEC championship game loser. If the loser of that game only drops to No. 3 or No. 4 in the human polls, then it can finish No. 2 in the BCS standings because of the computers. So it could be that a 12-0 TCU, a 12-0 Cincinnati and a 13-0 Boise State get squeezed out. [...]

I realize that Bama wrecked UGA’s NC dreams last year with the black out knock out, and perhaps sparked the team’s lingering malaise, but I still hope that Dawg fans will be pulling for us this weekend, particularly given your recent history with the Gators. We don’t play you regularly and you’re really not on our radar screen, but given 17-20 against UF, it figures that you would be rooting for anyone but them; however, I’m guesing you that you think whoever loses gives you some kind of bragging rights. Sad.

At the VA TECH game this year we were chanting, “SEC! SEC! SEC!” Nice win against Tech, but you really need to start keeping up your end of the argument, particularly when UT is the apparent runner-up in the SEC East after losing to the PAC-10.

Get your house in order!

Just my opinion, but having watched both teams, I’d say that 2009 Alabama would beat 2008 Alabama. Florida is the exact opposite. The 2008 team was superior to the 2009 team.

That said, anything could happen. I lean toward Alabama winning. I can’t see Texas losing to a mediocre Nebraska team, so any talk of a re-match is irrelevant.

I agree that Texas can’t compete with either of these two team’s defenses.

Florida will beat Alabama and then defeat Texas in a rout.

A rematch would be a disaster…No one wants to see it! The winner of this game needs to play Texas, or TCU if Texas falls against Nebraska. Personally, I believe Texas will steamroll the Huskers and meet the SEC champ in what will be a great BCS championship…
