Hook 'Em Horns: Why Texas Will Win the 2010 BCS National Championship
This year, the Tide have faced only one pass offense in the top 40 of the FBS (Arkansas). The average ranking of the pass offenses Alabama has faced is 67.25. And that doesn't include the Crimson Tide's game against FCS opponent Chattanooga.
Even though Alabama's defense has a reputation for being stout, they have yet to be tested by a prolific pass offense like the Longhorns'

Ten reasons Alabama will beat Texas
Being No. 1 in the nation in run defense is impressive no matter what, and Texas really does have a tremendous defensive front that should come up with a great game plan to slow down Heisman-winner Mark Ingram. But there are more weapons in the 'Bama arsenal with Trent Richardson and Roy Upchurch able to bring the speed and power to mix things up a bit. Again, what Texas has done stat-wise is noteworthy, allowing just 808 rushing yards and five touchdowns all year, but it's not like Nevada, Navy and Alabama were on the slate.
Oklahoma State was the best rushing team the Longhorns faced, and while the Cowboy attack was held to 134 rushing yards, Keith Toston ran for 70. The ground game wasn't the reason for the loss; four Zac Robinson interceptions and a 17-0 deficit were. The only other team Texas faced that could even remotely run was Texas A&M, and it gained 190 yards. Texas has yet to deal with a physical line like Bama's, and the same attitude the front five had against Florida should work in Pasadena.
