Instant Coffee: Final BCS Championship is a Great One
(1) Florida State Seminoles 34 vs (2) Auburn Tigers 31 It is Déjà vu all over again. 8 years after the epic Championship between the USC Trojans and Texas Longhorns that only half happened as only one team was officially in the game [USC subsequently vacated all its wins in the season due to NCAA violations related to Reggie Bush], the BCS Championship returned to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena.
