Who took care of business?

Hawaii did with a convincing victory over their rivals, Boise St. With an outright WAC title and BCS bowl bid on the line, the Warriors from Hawaii stepped up to the plate and punched the Broncos in the mouth. Colt Brennan completed almost 80% of his passes for 495 yards and 5 touchdowns. The defense for Hawaii actually stepped up in the running game, an area teams normally take advantage of, but it was a total team effort that understood what was on the line and did what it had to do.

A team that managed to take care of business albeit in a completely different fashion than Hawaii was Tennessee. With a chance to head to the SEC championship game against LSU and possibly go to the Sugar Bowl with a win, the Vols blow a 24-7 halftime lead. They have two great chances to put up a game-ending score in the last 6-7 minutes of the game and both times they punt. Even a field goal would have forced Kentucky to go for a touchdown, which Kentucky almost got to win the game. With a stop in the 4th overtime Tennessee is headed to Atlanta and I'm sure they'll be looking to take LSU to OT since they suck so bad. I give Tennessee a shot next weekend because of the severe letdown LSU feels from blowing a chance at the national title, Les Miles is going to be blamed by fans for having his mind on the Michigan job, and I really can't stand the drunkards from Baton Rouge one bit.

Speaking of taking care of business, West Virginia decided to leave no question as to who should be in the title game with a 66-21 ass whipping of Connecticut. The Mountaineers are a very scary team right now. i don't think it matters who they play they would be the favorite in my book. Again, they knew what was required to achieve their goals and they laid down the hammer on the Huskies.
