NCAA Divsion II CHAMPIONSHIP: Minnesota-Duluth (14-0) vs. NW Missouri St.(13-1)
Saturday, the Bearcats play for the NCAA title for the fourth consecutive year in a showdown with unbeaten Minnesota-Duluth in Florence, Ala.
Northwest Missouri (13-1) has won two national championships, but the last three years have delivered heartbreak. The Bearcats lost those title games by a total of 12 points, becoming the first school to lose the final three consecutive years.
Minnesota-Duluth (14-0) is playing in the final for the first time, after losing first-round games in 2002 and 2005
NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (I-AA) semifinals
Richmond 
vs. Northern Iowa 
Time/TV: Saturday, 4 p.m./ESPN. Surface: Artificial.
Sagarin difference: Richmond by 4.86.
The Spiders hit the road again seeking their first appearance in the final after vanquishing three-time defending FCS champion Appalachian State. Apparently, Richmond's rugged trek through the CAA, which sent five teams to the playoffs, was sufficient preparation for the postseason. It also helps having TB Josh Vaughan and his 19 rushing TDs to carry the offensive load. QB Eric Ward provides air cover and is a threat to take off himself, though he'll want to stay away from UNI DE James Ruffin and LB Josh Mahoney. The Panthers lost their only title game appearance, to Appalachian, three years ago. QB Pat Grace and RB Corey Lewis do most of the damage for the UNI attack. They must beware of Spiders CB Justin Rogers, who has three defensive TDs this season.
Friday night: Montana edges James Madison to reach FCS championship game 35-27
And last but not least who is your Heisman vote going for this year? 
Sam Bradford, Oklahoma 
Tim Tebow, Florida 
Or Colt McCoy Texas 
Colt McCoy, of course.
I do think it’s a shame that Graham Harrell wasn’t invited to the Heisman ceremonies.
My vote is for Colt McCoy.
UMD Wins!!
Pretty good game. Watched it on ESPN.
Tim Tebow
What? Tim could be the first to get it 3 times!
I missed H&C last night, so I didn’t see Archie!!!
I would have to think that he is one of the drones who supported That One.
But his accomplishments as a college, pro and post playing career are second to none and does not take away from the person that he is.
If I had to guess, Tebow wins again........
I hope Tebow gets it again.
I woulda thought his name was engraved on the trophy months ago. This is the year of 'The ONEs'
Sam Bradford, University of Oklahoma
OU can have the Heisman, we’ll take the BCS Trophy.
Congrats to Sam Bradford!
The voting was so close.
So now the BCS Championship Game will be the first time, two Heisman Trophy winners will face each other in a college game.
I think Sam Bradford will win.
Ooops it will be the second time two Heisman winners face each other Matt Leinart and Jason White faced each other in 2003.
This is a good choice even though I was pulling for Tebow.
I think that was 2004 DF...
Tebow had more first place votes and still lost. All those voters in Big 12 land left him off and voted for Bradford and McCoy.
I guess it’s one of those years where any of the three would work OK.
