2010 Citi BCS National Championship

Two of college football's most historic programs will take the field at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on January 7th to decide the BCS National Championship. Head Coach Nick Saban's Alabama Crimson Tide (13-0) finished with their second consecutive undefeated regular season and topped defending national champion Florida to capture the SEC Championship. The Texas Longhorns (13-0), behind head coach Mack Brown, won the Big 12 Championship to earn their shot at top ranked Alabama. Alabama is seeking their first national championship since 1992. Texas won their last title on this same Rose Bowl turf in 2006 as they topped the USC Trojans. This isn't the first time these two programs have met in a bowl either although it is the first since 1982. The Longhorns have a 7-0-1 record against the Tide.
