Florida State Seminoles – ACC Crown Isn’t so Bad
Who knows where the Florida State Seminoles would be ranked without that Week 6 loss that took them out of the national championship talk.

Oregon Ducks – No One Can Keep Up With Kenjon Barner
Too much offense, even for USC, who were ranked number one in the nation before the season began. Kenjon Barner set records for an Oregon running back and for a Trojan opponent, leapfrogging some players in the wide open race for the Heisman trophy, proving just how good the Ducks are, at least offensively.

Alabama Crimson Tide – AJ McCarron Can Play Fourth Quarters
He never really had a need or a chance to prove his metal in fourth quarters this season, because Alabama were never in a close on until their visit in week 10 to LSU.
