Taken The Conference Title Home




This Saturday was conference title night with three very big prime time match ups; Big 12, ACC, and SEC. Two teams, as of now, have calmed their conferences title in big games that were very exciting. One game was a rematch with BC vs. Virgina Tech for the ACC conference title. And the other game was for the SEC conference title with action packed teams LSU vs. Tennessee.

ACC BC vs. Virgina Tech: This game was a rematch that had a totally different look and outcome. In the first game it was undefeated BC's chance to prove themselves as a real contender for the BCS title. And Virgina Tech's chance to show BC real competition on their home field. VT dominated for about 57 minutes in terrible conditions, but still scoring 10 points. A heroic performance by BC's star QB Matt Ryan brought the team back and scored 14 points within less than 3 minutes. In this rematch saw BC take the advantage early with a strip by a linebacker was returned for a TD. From there Virgina Tech seem to get serious and limited their mistakes then and there so they wouldn't have repeat. They dominated the game in the second half scoring 14 unanswered point in a victory of 30-16.

SEC Tennessee vs. LSU: Both teams had their highs and lows from disappointing upsets to big overtime victories. In this game they put it all behind themselves and the only they wanted right then was the conference title. LSU starting QB Matt Fynn was injured for this game but Ryan Perrilloux showed that hes valuable too. This game as action packed with back and forth scoring. In Tennessee's last chance to tie the the game up, QB Eric Ainge was picked off in the red zone. LSU took it home in this one 21-14 for the SEC conference title.
