  <body>The BCS certainly hasn&#8217;t killed debate in college football. 

With Oklahoma slipping past Texas into the Big 12 championship game based on rankings, not head-to-head play, the chorus of bowl dissent and playoff revolution was its loudest all season among ESPN.com fan bloggers.

*Playoff plans*
&quot;10-team playoff&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/kberthus/blog/posts/73536

*MAC Championship: Ball State-Buffalo*
Buffalo has had a good year but no way are they stopping Ball State's run. _- &quot;orionben666&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/orionben666/blog/posts/73905_

I'd like to see Buffalo pull out some sort of stunning upset, but unless the entire Ball State offense fails to appear at the game the Cardinals should run away with it. _- &quot;kcaj789&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/kcaj789/blog/posts/73868_

*Conference USA Championship: East Carolina-Tulsa*
Depth and an incredible job of coaching by head coach Skip Holtz and defensive coordinator Greg Hudson have the Pirates on the cusp of winning their first-ever conference title. _- &quot;Sportsguru6&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/Sportsguru6/blog/posts/73884_

*ACC Championship: Boston College-Virginia Tech*
In this rematch of last year&#8217;s title game, expect the defense and special teams of VT to get ahead of the Eagles early, and hold on. _- &quot;Donovant22&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/Donovant22/blog/posts/73552_

No. 17 Boston College 30, No. 25 Virginia Tech 24 _- &quot;earn88hardt&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/earn88hardt/blog/posts/73832_

*SEC Championship: Alabama-Florida*
I have a lot of respect for Nick Saban and what he has accomplished already at Alabama. 12-0 is something to be very proud of, especially in the SEC. Unfortunately, on Dec. 6, The Tide will play the best team in college football. _- &quot;sdavis146&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/sdavis146/blog/posts/73653_ 

An incredibly challenging game for Alabama. If they expect Florida to concede to &#8216;power football,&#8217; they will be shocked by how skillfully the Gators handle the situation. _- &quot;goldenx&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/goldenx/blog/posts/73869_

When you compare the games in which they played the same opponents, the advantage clearly goes to the Gators. _- &quot;Lazlo59&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/Lazlo59/blog/posts/73506_

*Big 12 Championship: Missouri-Oklahoma*
I wish Saturday was over with. Mizzou has trouble will all Oklahoma schools all of a sudden, and after the painful memories of last year, I&#8217;m afraid this year will be all too familiar. _- &quot;Lissa10980&quot;:http://sportsnation.espn.go.com/fans/Lissa10980/blog/posts/73933_
