There are 4 clear favorites at the moment to earn a spot in the BCS National Championship Game. Florida's loss to Georgia last week knocked them out of the mix. That leaves Alabama, Oregon, Kansas State, and Notre Dame fighting for those 2 spots. Things could change in the blink of an eye though. #1 Alabama heads to Baton Rouge to take on LSU in a rematch of last season's BCS National Championship Game. An upset by the Bayou Bengals could potentially get them back into the conversation. There may only be a month left in the regular season, but there is still a lot of football to be played. That means I still have plenty of time to get back above .500. Here is how I expect Week 10 of the college football season to play out.

At the end of this week's games, every team in the NFL will have completed at least half of their games. By this time we have seen enough football, to have an idea of which teams are primed for playoff runs. Of course there are still questions. Who is going to emerge as legitimate playoff teams in the AFC? Can 8-8 earn you a Wild Card in the AFC? Are the Minnesota Vikings for real? When will the Atlanta Falcons lose? And can I catch fire in the 2nd half and finish in the money? All of these questions remain to be seen. I will do my best to answer the one about finishing in the money this week. Here is how I expect Week 9 to unfold.
