One week after being knocked out of the top spot in the JFP College Football Top 25, upsets of Oregon and Kansas State have returned Alabama to No. 2. The Crimson Tide and Georgia are both headed for the SEC Championship game. Barring upsets this Saturday, the winner of the SEC title game figures to earn a spot in the BCS Championship.

Right now, the SEC’s opponent will be Notre Dame, this week’s new No. 1 team. But the Fighting Irish face a tough regular-season finale at USC on Saturday.
