This will change week to week since upsets have occurred weekly. I don't care what the BCS has teams ranked this is who playing the best right now. I thought before the Alabama loss to S.C. that Oregeon vs Alabama was the best two teams. Now with upsets the National Championship game will be:
Week 8: Oregon VS Auburn?
Week 9: Oregon Vs auburn still the hostest 2 teams
Week 10: Still Oregon and Auburn. Good Bye alabamaYour two teams?

I am more interested who the hot or top 2 teams of the week we'll get to who beats who down the road.

Oregon vs. Auburn is looking good right now. Auburn has to take care of business in the Iron Bowl still though. But the ducks and tigers would be a LOT of fun to watch.

Alabama is still making it in. They are going to beat Auburn at home and win a revenge game against USCjr in the title game to make it to the BCSNCG.

I still think Oregon loses one and goes to the Rose Bowl instead, Michigan St drops one next week, and the Utah/TCU winner makes it to the title game.

Still four games on the Ducks schedule they could very well lose.

USC, Arizona, Cal, OSU?

USC will be our toughest game left. They do have talent, and Barkley will probably have success, but their defense is paper thin and the Tampon 2 has looked bad schematically so far this year.

I don't think anyone beats us at Autzen this year. Zona is a decent team, but they won't have much of a shot, especially if Foles isn't 100%.

Eh, Cal's an enigma. You never now what they'll do. Kevin Riley still sucks. Their defense will have a tough time. I don't think they have much of a shot.

We shut down Quizz last year, and that was with a healthy James Rodgers and Sean Canfield playing QB. They will have to outscore us in a shootout, because they are pretty bad defensively.

The game is in Corvallis, anything can happen. I know the Ducks are superior on paper, but in a road rivalry game, throw it out the window. Both sides have won home Civil War games they should have never had a shot in.

The Pac-10 still has a lot of good offenses, and Oregon's defense is flat-out not that good. Their only saving grace is getting turnovers.

The Ducks are going to do what they always do, choke it away when they're supposed to finally win that one that will elevate them into the big time.

Frozen Burrito Stadium was sooo intimidating in '08.

We've already faced the Pac-10's best offense, and we won by 21 against that offense.

I know, milo, you hate Oregon and refuse to believe that we can do it. You don't have to reiterate.

i think oregon would win that one i think they finally got a pretty good defense to go with that great offense and dont forget aub just gave up 40 to ark and close to that to kentucky the week before, they'll lose to bama

but i think oregon has a good chance of losing next weekend @USC too or @ arizona or @ oregon st.


they got a few places i could see em losing on their schedule still

so you're having a 1 loss bama with an undefeated TCU/Utah make the title with an also undefeated boise not going

i'm curious then, if mich st and utah/TCU are undefeated, would you still call for Bama in that scenario?

Unbeaten msu probably makes it in over bama. They'll lose one though.

I think Auburn and Oregon would make for a fun game to watch.

Everyone seems to forget that Auburn still has Georgia to play, and even though the Iron Bowl speaks for itself, the Auburn-Georgia game is equal to the Alabama-Tennesse game. I have a best friend that graduated from Auburn and of course we know not to be around each other during the Iron Bowl, but he totally hates Georgia, all year.

Iron Bowl Winner/Oregon. Oregon's got to get by USC first. Which is, by far, the toughest game remaining on the schedule... Playing a James Rodgers less OSU in Reser isn't as scary as many are making it out to be. Oregon's won 2 straight against better Beaver teams with less quality Oregon teams, and the more one sided of those two games was at Reser.

If Iowa doesn't do it next week, nobody will. If they survive Kinnick, only Minnesota, Purdue, and Penn State remain.

I think the Hawkeyes beat them though.

So do I.

Given the season at hand, there's no real reason to keep an undefeated Big Ten team out of the NCG, regardless of Ohio State's absence on their schedule.

Um... Oregon plays USC saturday. Stanfords offense is third at best.

All of the Pac-10's offenses range from pretty good to great, with the exceptions of UCLA and Wazzu (and OSU to an extent now that James Rodgers is out).

Guess who comprises half of Oregon's conference schedule to this point?

The two good offenses they've played to this point in the season have averaged over 550 yards.
