- Oregon v. Auburn - Championship Game: This match up is for all the marbles. Yet, no one really believes that this system actually crowns a champion, since the match ups are determined without a playoff season. Nonetheless, definitely catch this game on January 10th.
- Virginia Tech v. Stanford - Orange Bowl: Tech pulled out the ACC title and Stanford is arguably the best team in college football. Who will in in east vs. west?
- Texas Christian v. Wisconsin - Rose Bowl: TCU may be angry for not making it in the championship game, despite being undefeated and ranked third in the country, but winning the Rose Bowl would be a great chance to prove their talents. Plus, who doesn't want to travel to L.A. to play?

What to Watch This Weekend: College Football
Here are the college football premier matchups for the weekend:
(7) Florida v. (1) Alabama: This game is likely a preview of the SEC championship game. Florida has it out for Alabama, the defending champs, who ruined their chances at a repeat title. Alabama will need to depend on more than their run game to pull this one out. Who will control the deep south?
(9) Stanford v. (4) Oregon: The Stanford Cardinals are going to have to step up their defense to contain the Oregon Ducks. The Ducks like to expand the field and score quick. If the Cards can shrink the room in which the Ducks have to run, then we may know which bird reigns supreme.
(21) Texas v. (8) Oklahoma: Texas needs to make a serious comeback after their puzzling loss to UCLA last week. In this Red River Rivalry, Texas will need to hold onto the ball against Oklahoma's number one turnover defense. Oklahoma definitely has the edge here, but we all know that both teams will still throw some great tailgating parties to make up for the matchup not topping the marquee.
