Help Us Georgia, You’re Our Only Hope

The only shot we have to avoid an Alabama vs. LSU rematch in the BCS National Championship game is if Georgia can beat the Tigers in the SEC Championship game this week.

West Virginia Mountaineers
Big East

 

West Virginia had an odd start to their year as Bill Stewart was supposed to have his swan song in 2011 and give way to Coach Dana Holgorsen in 2012. But the Mountaineers opted to just go ahead and get Coach Holgorsen in as the head coach in 2011. No matter who was the head coach, Holgorsen ...

Southeastern Conference

Alabama Crimson Tide
Southeastern Conference

 

They came into the year as one of the best teams in the country. Their defense was extraordinary; their offense would be loaded on the back of a Heisman frontrunner. Alabama would be in store for great things in the 2011 college football season. In the end, it was only good enough ...

Western Michigan Broncos
Mid-American Conference

 

Western Michigan did not post any big conference victories, with their closet effort coming in a 45-35 victory over 6-6 Ball State. The schedule avoided the top teams in the Mid-American Conference East Division and the Broncos failed in their attempts to knock off Northern ...
