At noon, the Central Florida Knights take on the SMU Mustangs in a game that likely will determine the Georgia Bulldogs' bowl opponent. At 3:00, the Civil War (as opposed to the War Between the States) kicks off when the Oregon St. Beavers host the Oregon Ducks. At 4:00, the Auburn Tigers begin their clash with the South Carolina Gamecocks for the SEC championship. The showdown for the Apple Cup gets underway at 7:00, three-quarters of an hour before the Florida St. Seminoles and the Virginia Tech Hokies square off with the ACC crown on the line. After the Nebraska Cornhuskers and the Oklahoma Sooners add the concluding chapter to their storied rivalry, the UCLA Bruins and the USC Trojans meet to settle hegemony in the City of Angels.
No, Georgia isn't playing, but that just means it's a pressure-free weekend. Your thoughts on the day's action are invited in the comments below.
