Games to Watch

Missouri vs. Auburn at Atlanta, 4 p.m., CBS3

Does Auburn have another miracle in its equipment trunk? We don't think Auburn fans or its broadcast team could stand another heart-stopper, but the team has a strong rushing attack and a rising star in quarterback Nick Marshall that might be enough to turn aside Missouri and win the SEC title.

Pick Six

Oklahoma at Oklahoma State, noon, 6ABC

The Cowboys, losers of nine of their last 10 in this series, will finish with a share of the Big 12 title with a win and likely get the conference's spot in the Fiesta Bowl.

Central Florida at Southern Methodist, noon, ESPN

The Knights already have secured the first BCS bowl bid from the American Athletic Conference; a win gives them a spotless 8-0 AAC mark.

Texas at Baylor, 3:30 p.m., Fox29

The Bears look for a school-record 11th victory while the Longhorns must figure that a victory and a share of the Big 12 title could be enough to save coach Mack Brown's job.

Stanford at Arizona State,

7:45 p.m., ESPN

Seeking a return trip to the Rose Bowl, the Cardinal already have beaten the Sun Devils this season, but the Arizona State offense can be dangerous.

Florida State vs. Duke at Charlotte, 8 p.m., 6ABC

The top-ranked Seminoles never have lost to the Blue Devils in 18 previous games, and have too much at stake to overlook them.

Ohio State vs. Michigan State at Indianapolis, 8 p.m., Fox29

The No. 2 Buckeyes have an explosive offense behind Braxton Miller, but the Spartans own the nation's top-ranked defense.
