9. Get ready for 7-1-1.
Alabama doesn't have a DL like Suh, but their defense is just as nasty as Nebraska's, and their OL and running backs will flat wear Texas's defense out.
Remember this game?

10. I hope you beat the CRAP out of them.
And that's a lot of beating.

5. None of the above
The only team they played up there was Oregon and lost.

7. One (Georgia Tech).
And I'm quite glad that my Georgia Bulldogs re-established our dominance over those damn NERDS.
I do wish that TCU had been given the chance to prove itself against one of the conference champions, but no, the stupid ****ing Rose Bowl had to have their little PAC-10 vs. Big 10 matchup. If you'd given me the opportunity to set up the matchups, I would have done this:
Championship: Alabama vs. Texas
Sugar: Florida vs. Boise St.
Orange: Georgia Tech vs. TCU
Fiesta: Cincinnati vs. Ohio St.
Rose: Oregon vs. Iowa

11. So you set the #2 Big ten team against the #1 Pac 10 team instead of the #1 Big Ten team like it's always been. That doesn't make sense to me.

13. Yes.
Yes, in order to allow Cincinnati and TCU to face conference champions. Boise State has already demonstrated that they can beat a big-name school. Perhaps you could trade TCU and Iowa out, but as Oregon's already lost to a non-BCS squad, I wanted to give TCU and Cincinnati different opponents.
On edit: I also think that Iowa would make a more exciting matchup for Oregon than Ohio State. And I really like the idea of Cincinnati getting to play Ohio State.

8. Make it a top-10 list and OSU's tally falls by one
Of course, Penn State's doesn't

12. Almost one...
UConn only lost to Sin-sin-nasty 47-45. In fact, the five games that UConn lost this season were by an overall total of 15 points.

14. Same conference, though, so it's misleading...
...could say they could only beat the teams in their vastly over-rated conference.

15. So what?
OSU has also lost 2 games against teams (USC and Purdue) that have a combined 11 losses between them..
