Default National Championship

The talk all week has been about how great the OU offense is but how they haven't faced a defense as good as Florida's.

Then some no-name OU DB tells Tebow he'd be the fourth best QB in the Big 12. Harvin said this morning he is at 90%.

I think this will be a fantastic game and I can't wait to see it in person. My brother bought me a Tebow jersey for Christmas so I'll be sportin that at the game, LOL.

It's almost impossible to predict this game but I think Florida has a clear edge in the intangibles. They have great special teams, great defense (Defense wins championships, right?), a coach that is unbelievable tough to beat when he has time to prepare, a QB that won't let his team lose, and they have proven they can perform in the biggest games, unlike OU, who has lost it's last 4 BCS bowl games.

Florida 42 OU 38

I think Florida wins this game.

Here's why:

Offense - edge OU

Defense - edge Florida

Special Teams - big edge Florida

Coaching - edge Florida

Should be a good game. It's not helping OU that they're going to be without their starting RB and starting DL.

I vote Florida and Tebow for the win. Bradford shouldn't have won the Heisman either. He's good, but not better than Colt or Tebow.

There are already a lot of OU fans down here in Miami to go along with the Florida fans. I can't wait!!!

Enjoy the game Ben, I'm sure you'll have a blast. I was in the nose bleeds at the Fiesta Bowl and still had an awesome time.

I have no idea who is gonna win this one. Can't talk myself into either team being a favorite.

Both teams make good cases at why they will win. Florida's defense is good, and Tebow is a juggernaut, but I believe OU is more hungry for the win.

Sorry, but that is a very misinformed statement. Just about every mock draft out there right now has Sam Bradford going in round #1. And get this, he is ONLY a SOPHMORE. Thats pretty amazing if you ask me. If Sammy wins the NC, he will be a millionaire very very soon....
