Florida State took care of business at the ACC Championship when it beat Duke, 45-7. So that means in the National Championship, the Seminoles will look forward to facing a team that's not Ohio State...because it lost tonight.

The Buckeyes where on the verge of completing its second straight undefeated season when it ran into Michigan State in the Big Ten Championship. Ohio State had fortune swing its way when Auburn toppled the then-No. 1 Alabama. Now it's the SEC Champion Tigers who will be taking Ohio State's spot as the No. 2 seed after the Buckeyes got upset by Michigan State, 34-24. And the Buckeyes were so excitedlast week too. Ohio State will land a BCS at-large berth, but this is definitely not how they wanted to end their season—without a championship or a National title bid.
