The BCS National
Championship Game should be an exciting battle. Florida
will face Oklahoma's potent offense led by Heisman Trophy
winner Sam Bradford. The Sooners' average 54 points a
game, 60 or more in their last five of the season. The
Gators led by quarterback Tim Tebow, who won last year
Heisman Trophy and second to Bradford this year averaged
45 points. However, Florida has the better defense and is
playing in their backyard. |
|
The Gators have more playmakers and their defense will be
the toughest the Sooners had to deal with. Besides their
one point defeat against Ole Miss, Florida has slaughter
every team they played this season. Look for Florida’s
defense to inhibit Oklahoma's powerful offense and
pressure Bradford. Take the speedy Gators to win their
second national championship in three years. Also, the SEC
conference is superior to the Big 12. The Sooners are 0-5
ATS in the last five clashes against SEC teams. |
