22. Ole Miss(SEC) 9-4
23. USC(Pac 10) 9-4
24. Rutgers(Big East) 9-4
25. LSU(SEC) 9-4
The result of this is that Alabama will be recognized as the y25 National Champion. Entering next season Bama will be Number 1 with Florida at 2, Ohio State at 3, Iowa at 4, and 5 to be determined. Due to being a mid-major school Boise State will not be eligible for Top 5 status to begin next season unless I decide otherwise. With that here are the final conference standings.
1.SEC-4
Big Ten-4
3.Big XII-3
Big East-3
Mountain West-3
6.ACC-2
Pac 10-2
8.WAC-1
MAC-1
Sun Belt-1
As you can see the SEC and Big Ten are 1 and 2. Due to the SEC having the Number 1 team in the country they hold the tie breaker and have won their fourth conference championship. Here are the list of previous champions.

2007:Big XII

Looking Back(2009 conference predictions):
ACC Champion:Georgia Tech over Wake Forest
Big Ten Champion:Ohio State
Big East Champion:Rutgers
Big XII Champion:Oklahoma State over Kansas
Pac 10 Champion:Oregon
SEC Champion:Florida over Ole Miss
BCS Buster:Boise State
Major Bowls:
National Championship Game:Florida over Oklahoma State
Rose Bowl:Oregon over Ohio State
Fiesta Bowl:Texas over Boise State
Sugar Bowl:Ole Miss over Penn State
Orange Bowl:Georgia Tech over Rutgers
Heisman Trophy:Tim Tebow
Well I guess half isn't bad. To think of it this way, if Florida beats Bama I look good at the moment. Okie State and Ole Miss dissapointed everyone including their own rivals. Kansas looked great til they played some real teams. I think even Riley Skinner wonders what the hell happened to Wake. Rutgers had a good team, but just can't beat WVU or Cincy. I definately called the Rose Bowl. Florida over Okie State in hinesight sounds like something my NCAA 10 game would've predicted. Tebow defiantely didn't deserve the Heisman and I'm glad he didn't get it.
Heres my Way too Early Predictions for 2010:
ACC:Florida State over Virginia Tech
Big East:Pittsburgh
Big Ten:Ohio State
Big XII:Nebraska over Oklahoma
Pac 10:Oregon
SEC:Alabama over Tennessee
