I saw the near-interception for the 'Horns, and the ensuing touchdown with :01 seconds left afterwards. Seeing McCoy's jaw hit the turf as the fans stormed the field was priceless, and despite all that Texas only dropped to 4th and they're clinging to title hopes.
Also, ROLL TIDE.
So, Tech is #2, Penn State stays at #3. Texas #4, Florida up to #5.
My take on the top 5:
Bama: Five games between now and championship gold. LSU ordinarily would be a major test, but Florida and Georgia ran all over them and we punked Georgia out. If we beat them, our SEC West berth is safe. With Terrence Cody back in play this should not be a long shot at all. M-State is a given. Auburn will be the death knell for Tommy Tuberville's career; even though it's a rivalry game after seeing the clinic we put on against Tennessee I can't say a 4-5 team is much of a threat. If Auburn loses to Georgia, we will not only send them packing but take their bowl eligibility as well. Sweet, sweet justice. Moving on, SEC Championship is shaping up to be Bama-Florida, and I am totally psyched for this game. The SEC, true to form, has beaten itself out of title contention in November save for two teams, and after this game we'll be down to one. I'm hoping for Bama-Penn State redux, but we may have to settle for Texas Tech. Regardless, it'll be a great national title game.
Tech: No. 9 Oklahoma State, No. 6 Oklahoma, and Baylor are left. It'll be tough, but after their performance last night there's a good chance Texas Tech could remain undefeated. Unlike the SEC, the Big 12 title spots are still up for grabs for many teams, and a loss during any of those games may eliminate Tech from contention. They will have to fight to keep their No. 2 spot, but it's not impossible by any means.
Penn State: A relatively easy schedule left, Michigan State being the only issue, but idling last week cost them the No. 2 spot. They should coast to a Big 12 Championship, which they'll get get a shot at even if they do lose to Michigan State. Whether or not they get a BCS title berth depends on Bama/Tech's performance.
Texas: Arguably the toughest last four weeks of any team in the BCS, the pressure finally proved too much for the vaunted McCoy/Shipley combination. They aren't completely out of the national title picture yet though, and they may get a Big 12 title shot if Tech screws up. You'll have to watch them closely.
Florida: Their last four games aren't Easy Street by far (Vandy, Spurrier, Flo-State, and Citadel), but unless they lose two of those games they have a lock on the SEC East championship berth. Even if they beat Bama in the SEC championship game, they may not get a BCS title shot unless two other higher- ranked teams lose a game between now and then. I wouldn't put anything past Tebow and the Gators, though.
