December NCAA Football Rankings

Well of all the years to make my list public.  In most other years there are usually no more than 3 dominant teams, and it is a question between only a few teams.  The ranking system worked.
This year is a year in which Stanford won 4 games, and 2 of them were against teams who at one time were ranked #2.  If there was ever a year for a playoff (which should happen anyway), this was it.  Imagine the excitement going in with 16 teams in a playoff, including Hawaii and BYU.
Anyway, I expect:
Rose: USC-Ohio St.
Sugar: Missouri-Georgia
Fiesta: Arizona St.-Hawaii
Orange: Virginia Tech-West Virginia
BCS Champ: LSU-Oklahoma
