Big Week 11 for RUTS Teams

In a busy week 11, four RUTS teams in particular will go head-to-head with division titles on the line. The #1 Alabama Crimson Tide host #3 LSU for SEC West supremacy, while the #2 Oklahoma Sooners look to avenge last season's shocking loss to #10 Miami, with the winner claiming the Big XII South title.

These games should be barn-burners, and although Alabama (7 points) and Oklahoma (5.5 points) are the favorites, look for the underdogs to keep these games close.

LSU's potent offense leads the nation in points per game, and Alabama's defense leads the nation in fewest points allowed. Somethings got to give. Look for the Tigers to pass, pass, pass, and pass some more, in order to test this Crimson Tide secondary. Bama will be without one of its stars, as RB Trent Richardson is injured and out for 4 more weeks with a back injury. Who knows how this will affect Alabama. The winner of this game will  to not only win the SEC West, but will be in the driver's seat for a birth in the BCS National Title game!

Oklahoma hosts Miami in what could be an interesting battle of wits. Coach stinvol has the Hurricanes back on track, entering the game at #10 in the BCS and once again, like last season, surging at season's end. Coach utvol27 will rely heavily on his QB Landry Jones and RB Jermie Calhoun to keep the Miami defense on its heels. If Miami can limit turnovers, however, and finish drives with TDs, this game should come down to the 4th quarter. Can the Sooners avoid the upset, or will the Canes be yet another step in Oklahoma's march through the Big XII?
