On The Mark: Plenty of drama left for championship games

SEC
Who: No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 4 Florida

When/where: 4 p.m. Saturday/Georgia Dome, Atlanta

What's at stake: The winner of Saturday night's game -- the first-ever matchup of SEC teams ranked Nos. 1 and 2 in The Associated Press Top 25 poll -- is all but assured of earning a spot in the BCS Championship Game. The No. 1 Crimson Tide can cap a perfect 13-0 regular season by defeating the Gators. Florida will be trying to win its second SEC title in three seasons. The Gators won the 2006 SEC championship and beat Ohio State 41-14 in the BCS Championship Game.

What to watch: The teams are as different as any squads in the SEC. Alabama relies on its size and brute strength. Florida relies on its speed and versatility on offense. The Gators have scored 40 points or more in each of their past seven games. They've outscored their past eight opponents by a combined score of 414-97 and won each game by at least four touchdowns. The Crimson Tide allowed nine points or fewer in four of their last five games. Florida's offense might not be as effective if junior receiver Percy Harvin, one of the fastest players in college football, can't play because of a sprained ankle.

Who to watch: Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, has played at an entirely different level since the Gators' 31-30 loss to Ole Miss on Sept. 27. In his past eight games, Tebow has completed 68 percent of his passes for 1,491 yards with 19 touchdowns and two interceptions. He hasn't thrown an interception in his past 91 attempts. Tebow also has rushed for 382 yards and 10 touchdowns in his past eight games.

On the Mark winner: Alabama
