Final 45-10 'Bama

Final 42-14 Ducks. Unlike FSU, Oregon played a quality opponent. We'll see if that's good enough

20-12 Stanford, who play the Ducks on the first Thursday in November. If the Ducks can dominate that game I think they'll play for the Natty. If it's close, well they're gonna need some help. The Cardinal defense was punishing in this game.
