Well for right now Alabama and Texas Tech fans are really happy as they stand one and two in the latest BCS Standings, but how much longer will that last. Texas Tech this week must travel to Norman Oklahoma to take on the Sooners which will not be an easy task. The last two games for the Red Raiders were at home and that sure helps out a lot. Meanwhile Alabama has a SEC championship game with Florida waiting for them. What could be interesting about all this is Boise State and Utah could be the country's only undefeated and not make it. I look for Alabama and Texas Tech to lose somewhere down the line. If we have a bunch of one loss teams than the BCS will have to give a bunch of bad news to a lot of teams. In fact it should be very interesting. I am praying for a lot of one loss teams so eventually we can get rid of the BCS and put in a playoff system.

Jimmie Johnson extended his points lead as he won the race at Phoenix this afternoon. Johnson led 217 of 313 laps to stretch his lead to 141 points which means he has only to finish 36th or better at Homestead in Miami to capture his third straight title. Many people do not realize how tough that is too do. Winning three straight Nextel Cup Championships is really tough. if you do not believe that just go back to see how many teams who won a championship lost the following year.

What Jimmie Johnson is doing is something special and it seems him and Chad Knaus have a special bond and they know exactly what they are doing. They might just win number four next year if they keep going the way they have in the past. Look for Jimmie Johnson continue to win unless someone else steps up to stop him. I really do not see that happening anytime soon.
