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.

And last but not least who is your Heisman vote going for this year? 
Sam Bradford, Oklahoma 
Tim Tebow, Florida 
Or Colt McCoy Texas 
It’s pretty much a given that the Heisman winner loses to the runner-up in the bowl game.
There’s no way OU hangs with UF in this one.
I was suprised that he came in second with all the hype about Tebow.
I hope he wins all but one game next year and I’m ok with him winning the Heisman IF Sam doesn’t come back,
Was he wearing a cast at the awards or did he have his plays on his left wrist?
Richmond Spiders pull the huge upset over UNI! And the SWAC title goes to Grambling, time for the bowls & Richmond vs. Montanta at 10AM in Chattanooga for the football subdivison title next week
